Catalogue of science lanterns, optical lanterns, dissolving-view apparatus, and lantern slides (London: Newton & Co., 1909), 338-345

“In these Sets of Slides the words do not appear on the screen at all. The Solo should be sung by someone whose words can be distinctly heard, and the pictures are to be shown in the order given below as the singing proceeds. In the case of hymns there is usually one picture to each verse.

These Illustrated Solos are most effective. One or more should be used at every Lantern Service.
