Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:56262915 | Photo Type: Magic Lantern Slide |
| Color: Color |
Good condition - has a very hard to see crack. This slide was produced for the Southern Pacific Railroad. It was most likely shown to promote travel along the rail. The slide is hand colored and nicely done. The slide is standard size 4" x 3.25".
Magic lantern slides consist of two slides of glass, a photo gel and a adhesive boarder. They come in various states of condition and states of repair. Some slides have seen more than a few slide masters. I do place an inventory sticker on ...the glass, which is easy to remove if you add a little heat. If there is any residue just take a q-tip with a bit of orange oil on it to the glass surface.
