Description:
Newton & Co. had probably the largest stock of lantern slides in Britain after 1918. The entire catalog is published in 10 sections, this is section 9. Next to lantern slides on the subject of art, art history and literature, some accessories of lantern slides and films were advertised, too. The catalog has been scanned from a paper copy which caused that cover and back are difficult to read. - To learn more about the Newton & Co. and access digital copies of lantern slides in their stock, visit the Lucerna Magic Lantern Web Resource http://slides.uni-trier.de/organisation/index.php?id=1000428.
