Next to lantern slides on the subject of natural sciences, some accessories of lantern slides 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 .
