Newton & Co., England
in stock of Newton & Co., 1899-1948 (item ref. RE)
reissue of The catastrophe series: a set of humorous slides for rapid changes (comic: York & Son, 60 slides, 1889-1890)
This set appears to be a reissue of twelve pairs of slides from the first group of the Catastrophe series (Lucerna ID 3000563). They were presumably acquired with the rest of the York & Son stock when Newton took over that business.
The slides appear to have been randomly chosen from the earlier set; it is not clear whether Newton reissued these with their own labelling and numbering on the slides, or with their original York branding.
