Harkening back to the days when folks gathered together in darkened country halls and city theaters to marvel at beautifully hand colored views offered by the turn of the century traveling Magic Lantern projectionist, this nicely slide show travel case offers its original content of 28 McAllister Magic Lantern Slides. Each hand colored glass slide remains in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or condition issues. As most of these patriotic sets have been broken up with individual views offered separately, show sets of the most popular and now most collectable Historic Americana and Patriotic War views are seldom found. Included in this set are illustrative historical views from Columbus, the landing of the Pilgrims, Revolutionary War views to include Washington at Valley Forge, battle views and the Surrender Of Cornwallis. Included are Jackson at the Battle of New Orleans then Civil War views to include Confederate artillerists active in the Bombardment of Fort Sumter, Lincoln rallying the troops the Battle of Gettysburg and finally peace as illustrated by a pair of Union and Confederate veterans shaking hands before the American flag. With a sprinkling of attractive Lady Liberty and Stars and Stripes views the collection is concluded by Spanish American War views. Explosion of the Battleship Maine in Havana Harbor then views of land and sea battle round out the grouping with views current to the time in which the show would have been presented. As with all direct sales, we are pleased to offer a no questions asked three day inspection with refund of the purchase price upon return as purchased! Thanks for visiting Gunsight Antiques !
