“These are Comic Subjects, each in 2 slides, and are suitable for Children's Entertainments. They are intended for use in the ordinary double-sliding carrier (see page 1002), as it is necessary to make the change from the first slide to the second very rapidly, and, with this carrier, the second slide can be shot into place so quickly that the movement can hardly be detected.

Two slides to each subject.”
