Dream of Witches. | |
A wonderful single
slipping slide consisting of a fixed glass plate in a mahogany frame with the
image of a sleeping girl in the forest, and a long glass plate that slides
through the frame with the image of a group of colourful witches on their flying
broomstick. Together they show the girl's dream: the witches
that fly through the forest. The slide is made by W.C. Hughes, Brewster House, 82 Mortimer Rd. Kingsland Road. London. Label with name and address in one of the corners of the slide. Dimensions of the frame 26 cm x 11.5 cm. |
Man swinging fire pit. Single lever slide with a striking moving glass. |
|

|
Bear Hunting. Interesting double slipping slide featuring a polar bear hunting scene. |
|
This mechanical magic lantern slide consists of three parts: a fixed
glass with an image of a polar landscape embedded in a wooden frame, and
on both sides of this glass an elongated moving glass with the images of
the hunters and the bears. Of course the above
animation only gives only a slight impression of the way in which this
slide should be shown. An exciting story can be built
up by slowly shifting the right glass plates at the right time. |
By moving the slipping glass the colour of the environment changes while a small boat with passengers passes. Length: 28,5 cm! |
|
|
Large format single slipping slide. More than 28 cm long! The image shows the Egyptian pyramids and a Sphinx with in the foreground a group of travellers on camels, preceded by a guide on foot. The back of the lantern slide shows how a loose glass with the procession of the camels on it is pushed behind the fixed plate with the pyramids and Sphinx. |
An old, somewhat damaged, but partly because of that very charming lever plate. A man who works relentlessly on...... something. |
