Wood-Mount Magic Lantern Glass Rackwork “Chromotrope” Slide, 19th CenturyItem description is keyed to the numbered images above.The word WATERMARK does not appear on the actual slide or slides.
Images 2 - 4:The slide, although it looks smaller in the pictures, measures the standard 4” x 7” (9” including crank). It is half an inch thick. The wood and the glass are without cracks.Rackwork magic lantern slides were one of the more ingenious ways the nineteenth-century came up with to project a moving image before the invention of motion pictures. The slides were comprised of two circular panes of glass, one stationary, one free-moving with gear teeth along the circumference that engaged with a pinion turned by a crank in the slide’s wooden frame.This particular slide is a chromotrope - a projectable kaleidoscope. Nineteenth-century audiences knew the slides as “Artificial Fireworks” which was how they were frequently described on posters advertising magic lantern shows.The effect is hypnotic, and the color changes very pleasing.Images 1 and 5 - 12:The slide with its crank in various positions.This is one of 25 lantern-slide sales ending within 25 minutes of each other. We combine shipping on multiple lots.
