A late 19th, early 20th century magic lantern. This one was intended for home use, for amusement and education. Yup, it's Victorian so we can't have amusement without education.

About Me
- Yank Azman
- Most people work until they retire then open that little antique shop they've been dreaming about. We kinda did it the other way. We've been dealers for forty years and have now started to sell off everything. When that's all gone, I'm shooting for that desk job at the Post Office (maybe shooting and post office shouldn't be in the same sentence). Now that I'm home ALL the time, P has decreed that I not leave the ManCave except for meals and to do the heavy lifting. I also lecture: "Antiques for the Curious Beginner". Sometimes I even know what I'm talking about. You can book me if you want to. I'm housebroke and I clean up real good. I also supply antiques as props for the movies at www.torontoprops.com. Oh, one last thing, I have a cat that went missing thirty five years ago. Reward offered, no questions asked.
