As well as View-Master reels, GAF produced these rare Monkees Tru-Vue slides. This Monkees set is called "The Last Wheelbarrow to Pokeyville," and is cataloged as items T-73/74/75. They feature scenes from the Monkees TV episode, "Hillbilly Honeymoon." Images have turned a bit pink, not unusual for these types of images. General wear from handling, and paper on these metal based slides is bubbling in spots (evident in the 3rd image, below). Still they look great. These are much less common than the View-Master reels. Rare enough that the 'Monkees Collectibles Price Guide' by Marty Eck doesn't even list them as Monkee merchandise! Get 'em while I've got 'em - then you'll have them!
