Discover a piece of history with this antique Magic Lantern glass negative slide. Encased in a wood frame measuring 7”x4”, this slide is an authentic Victorian-era artifact, not a reproduction. The image depicts a terrifying scene of a railroad bridge collapsing and rail cars falling into the water below.
The wood frame is engraved with “The M.C. Lilley & Co.,” indicating that the slide was produced in the late 1800s or very early 20th century. The M.C. Lilley & Co., established in 1865 in Columbus, Ohio, was renowned for producing high-quality regalia, military uniforms, and society items.
The slide is in very good condition for its age, showcasing vivid colors and minimal wear to the wood. Perfect for collectors of antique photography and Victorian memorabilia, this Magic Lantern slide is a rare find. Please see all photos for further details.
