Magic lantern slides depicting playing children.


Two long lantern slides, the last from a series made by Ernst Plank (E.P.).
 

To play at leapfrog.
Mahogany framed slipping slide, hand painted. The frame is stamped H. Lewis Dissolving View Artist 35 Broad Street Reading. It measures 7" x 4.5" (17.5 x 11.5 cm).
 

 

Double slipping slide of a boy jumping over a street post. A note at the post says 'NOTICE'. Hand painted images. Dimensions 7" x 4" (18 x 10 cm).
Unlike the preceding slide here three phases of the movement  are depicted, which makes the jump act more complete.
 

 


Three colourful magic lantern slides. Manufacturer unknown. From a set of twelve slides.
 
Naughty boys. Three boys fighting, another boy being rude behind the back of an unsuspecting gentleman and finally the school master beating a boy while another boy is rubbing his posterior. These charming magic lantern slides are 3 1/4 inch square.
