Theobald & Co. released two versions of The Pilgrim's Progress. This is the first version (Old Series). The titles of the slides we found in 'J. Theobald and Company's additional special illustrated catalog of magic lanterns, slides and apparatus' (London: Theobald & Co., c.1893).

The Pilgrim's Progress - Barnard. Barnard & Sons used the same images for a set of twelve circular slides mounted in a wooden frame. All slides wear a label with the name of the manufacturer and the title of the set. They are 7 x 3 inches in size ( 18 x 7,6 cm).

	The Pilgrim's Progress - Bamforth. Bamforth & Co. (MacKeith set). Seven slides from a large set of 42 slides. All slides are numbered with description in the mat. The set is based on drawings by the Scottish artists David Scott (1806-1849) and his brother William Bell Scott, in an edition of The Pilgrim's Progress originally published in 1851, (The Pilgrim's Progress with forty illustrations by David Scott, R.S.A., &c.; a life of Bunyan by the Rev. J. M. Wilson; and explanatory notes abridged from the Rev. Thomas Scott, published by A. Fullarton, London, Edinburgh and Dublin). The editor of this volume, states that David did the first part and his brother the second part (about Christina) after his brother's death. It appears that either the brothers shared the first part or that William Bell Scott, who did all of the illustrations for the second, added a few to the first.
