This auction is for a superb example of a mechanical magic lantern slide illustrating the phases of the moon.
It was made in the mid to late 19th Century and retailedby Newton & Co of Fleet Street London.
It has the retailer\'s embossed mark and its original paper label which reads:
\'This diagram illustrates the cause of spring and neap tides, and shews the moon\'s phases during its revolution\'.
The slide measures 7" by 4" and is in excellent cndition with no losses or cracks to either the wooden frame or the glass. The winding mechanism works smoothly.
The auction starts at a low price with no reserve.
Please see my other unusual magic lantern slides listed.
