Notes

Catalogue of lantern slides and apparatus as well as animated film. The illustations to the accessories are made from photographs, which I have not seen in catalogues that early. Also offers a 'Microphonograph' and 'The Anglo-American Royal Bioscope'. Alex Gunn also offered to give performances with lantern and phonograph.

The list of slides is rather focuessed on entertainment, travel sets and Bible storiesand hymns than on educational material.

Great photograph on the last page on a combines bi-unial lantern with a 'biograph'
