Small collection of materials that belonged to Bernice E. Mayer, sister of the owners of Sawyer's Inc., which manufactured the View-Master stereoscope. The collection includes photographs and booklets on the pages of a disassembled album, as well as a loose second copy of one booklet; an employee handbook; and three loose negatives.

The photographs depict subjects including: Sawyer's factories, among them a building on SW Ella Street and the company's complex in Progress, Oregon; delivery cars; employees, both in portraits and on the job; manufacturing and processing equipment; and products. The loose negatives show buildings in the Portland area.

The two booklets in the collection were created circa 1951 and in 1986. The older booklet, made by Sawyer's, is titled "Sawyer's Story" and includes a brief history of the company, photographs of employees and departments, and a list of View-Master products. The 1986 booklet, similarly titled "The Sawyer's Story," was compiled by George Patton and Claude Baskett of the Sawyer's Alumni Association. It provides a history of the company and brief vignettes about important figures in Sawyer's development, including Edwin E. Mayer, Fred J. Mayer, Harold J. Graves, Ray F. Kelly, and William B. Gruber. The employee handbook in the collection, created circa 1953 and titled "We're in Business Together!," includes information about the company's history, departments, and benefits.
