The Optical Magic Lantern Journal and Photographic Enlarger. ili. ARCHER’S LANTERN NOVELTIES. NEW OPAQUE LANTERN SCREENS. FTER a series of experiments, Messrs. ARCHER have succeeded in making the MOST PERFECT LANTERN SCREEN, known; one in which nonce of the Light is lost. We recently supplied one to the Manchester Photographic Society, after they had seen and tried all other makes. Their report is as follows :— “The Photographic Record,” January, 1895: ‘ The Lantern Committee, in their wisdom, provided for us a Sercen which did justice to the pictures reflected from its surface. For some time past the Council have endeavoured to obtain a Screen which would satisfy the necessary conditions, viz. :—Perfect Opacity, a White, Even Surface, and Good Hanging. These qualitics are embodied in the Sercen purchased from Messrs. Arcumr, of Liverpool, on whom it reflects credit.” ; Very few have any idea of the enormous loss of light there is with the ordinary Calico or Linen Screens.
