Great For Stained Glass Projects Vintage COLORFUL 19th Cen Magic Lantern Slides
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:7759549 |
Magic Lantern glass slides - 16 beautiful COLOR antique, vintage (i.e. 19th Century) most in pretty good shape. Quite a number have the trademark "E.P." at the upper right, which means "Ernst Plank", I believe.
These would make great material as the centerpieces of stained glass projects! Use them in window panels or leaded glass lamp shades or hanging suncatchers for windows. They weren't originally intended for that use but would be unique. They have intrig...uing colors that haven't faded in over 100 years.
They are glass with some sort of paper tape that protects the edges (or protects fingers from sharp glass, more likely).
All are 2-3/4" x 8-3/4"
13 are full-width oblong images, 3 have multiple round images.
Here are some articles about the Ernst Plank company of Nuremberg, Germany. Wikipedia.About their projectors: This Link.
Very colorful, probably as pretty as the day they were made over a century ago. Most of the illustrations are of humorous subjects: children riding giant grasshoppers, getting into mischief, elves, gnomes, animals of various kinds, a couple of great snow scenes, including a skating scene.
Condition: The glass is all intact - no chips or cracks. NOTE: There are some scratches on the printed gel illustrations as you can see in the photos. Don't expect these to be perfect, but they sure are fascinating!
Will pack very carefully.
