Complete set of antique large format hand-painted magic lantern slides dating from the late 19th century (circa 1880–1900). These panoramic glass slides form a continuous narrative story, likely used for theatrical or salon projections before the invention of cinema. Each slide is individually hand-painted and mounted in paper frames. The scenes depict costumes, interiors and staged actions typical of early visual storytelling performances. The set is stored in original wooden boxes and represents a rare large-scale projection series rather than standard educational slides. Included • Large series of hand-painted panoramic magic lantern slides • Original wooden storage boxes Condition Antique condition with age wear to frames and some paint loss in places. Glass intact and colors remain bright. Typical wear consistent with 19th century use. A rare pre-cinema entertainment projection series and highly decorative collector’s item.
