- 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.
