This photo from 1982 shows a family enjoying their dinner – and a bit of 3D television. Although 3D film can be traced as far back as the 1920s, it saw a worldwide resurgence in the 1980s. Back before the days of high-def television, these cardboard red and blue glasses were all the rage.

In 1982, television history was made with the first ever 3D broadcast of The Revenge of the Creature, sequel to Creature from the Black Lagoon. Local convenient stores and fast food chains often gave away these glasses as part of a promotion, buy a large pizza at Pizza Hut and get your very own 3D glasses!
