Notes
The slide titles are taken from the illustrated slide set, and appear on the slide mounts handwritten in white ink. A printed label 'Copyright. Dollond & Co' appears on each slide.
The labelling appears to indicate that Dollond were the makers of this set, though there is no other evidence as yet of them as slide manufacturers.
