Empty cardboard box of Burroughs Wellcome & Co. ‘Tabloid’ (Photographic) ‘Rytol’ Universal Developer that could be used on plates, film, bromide and gaslight papers, and glass lantern slides. Directions on how to use the developer are printed in black throughout the yellow box. Developers were either chemical powders or liquids that would be added to another agent [usually a bath] to create a solution that would then be used to expose the positive photograph after it had been transferred from the original negative. Different concentrations or chemicals used could yield different results, usually in regards to contrast and colour of the finished image, depending on the photographic base.

Description
One paper-wrapped package of 45x107mm Ilford Alpha Lantern Plates with white and red paper adhesive labels on the top and front of the package containing manufacturer details. These lantern plates would serve as the positive mount for the lantern slide made from the original negative. Lantern slides are glass-based transparencies that were displayed by being projected through an early projector called a magic lantern. Starting as hand-painted images on glass, lantern slides quickly adapted to first black-and-white and then colour photography and faded from popularity with the rise of celluloid film and motion pictures.
