Item History & Price

Rare and unusual bargains since 2005.
I'm keeping the written description brief so please examine all the photos and do get in touch if you want more details about...
I have just discovered 22 coloured glass magic lantern slides from 'The Paradise of The Pacific' series. I am putting them all on now so they can be shipped in good time for Christmas! They are the only ones I have. There were 58 real photographs in the full series, produced by George... Washington Wilson and dated by Lucerna as 'on or before 1891.' It is possible the set here was issued after this date. All of the slides are in original uncleaned condition and may have specks on or in them so please examine my photographs of them carefully.
This is slide number 50, 'Kilauea Lake Volcano.' .........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The small print: Libraryhub is the free, easy-to-use site which displays the holdings of British libraries. It is great for basic research such as dates and collation. Also, see abebooks (use the advanced search) and wikipedia to find out more about the items here. Please see the photographs for more details, they are part of the description. This is an important point; you can get a general impression of the item through the photographs. If you need any additional information just ask. And if you know something I don't, please tell me, I have been at this for 25 years but I'm always learning.
I am happy to combine postage and hold things over. I usually post the next day and everything is well packaged and sent with a tracking number. Note that the post to America has increased sharply recently.
