SLIDES. This box measures approx. 10" x 4 1/4" x 5 1/4" and appears to have been constructed to hold magic lantern slides. Most of the 56 slides included in this lot are actual photographs of a historical nature, and the vast majority have a military theme. There are scenes of American soldiers, British soldiers, Turkish soldiers, German soldiers, and more. There are a few historical views, including an early view of Mount Vernon. There are a few slides showing artwork. Due to the uniforms and civilian attire, we would say these slides date to the end of the early 19th century to the early 20th century. CONDITION: Most of the slides are in good, viewable condition. A couple may have flaws in the emulsion. (02-23769/BF). $200-400.
