Bring Along A Brownie

 

Kodak Brownie was the point & shoot camera of the 20th century, a mass produced camera in production for 80 years. From the first cardboard and wood model in 1900 to the last, compact moulded plastic cartridge loading pocket camera made in 1980, almost 100 cameras bore the famous name. Millions of them were produced.

Magic Lantern Slides

Some examples of my magic lantern slides. 

The magic lantern,  is an early type of  image projector employing pictures painted, printed or produced photograpghically on transparent plates (usually made of glass), one or more lenses , and a light source. It was mostly developed in the 17th century and commonly used for entertainment purposes. It was increasingly applied to educational purposes during the 19th century. The magic lantern was in wide use from the 18th century until the mid-20th century, when it was superseded by a compact version that could hold many 35 mm photographic slides: the slide projector.
