The latest Globe Magic bantern “Bosco” “Improved Climax System" These improvements which we offer are of great importance ami show up our “Bosco” very advan- tageously from the different “Climax'’ systems. The mechanical turner secures an even and easy movement for the discs, while the picture slot, for the long slides, is so arranged that it can he adjusted before the louse opening by a very slight pressure. This lantern is made entirely from polished brass, and is fitted with a new mechanical disc turner, and practical arrangement for long slides. Mounted on polished wood board. The convenient form of this new lantern, and the extremely efficient construction of our lenses, to give large and bright projections, will at all times procure a favourable reception for the “Bosco”. 1450 & 1400 Packing for 1400 “Posco” Packed in extra strong card-board boxes, with (> glass Slides, and t* Discs. 1450/3f Class slides If in. wide, wood pictures If in. wide, discs 4 in. diam.
