Important Added Info: Glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). We have taken a digital photo of each that shows the general condition of the overall slide and holder, and we have also made a digital scan that shows the glass image well, but does not show the holder (except as a dark outline). Condition: very good to fine. There is some discoloration in the blank glass area to the left and right of the image. As is typical with older glass slides, this slide has no holder, but has black tape around all the edges of the glass. Other than the discolorati Learn More about condition grades
