Important Added Info: Note that 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). This slide is the kind that has two panes of glass that are taped together with black tape around all four edges (front and back), typical of many older glass slides. We have provided a high quality scan of the image, but we have not taken a photo of the slide, because there would really be very little to see! Condition: fair. The tape is missing from the bottom border and there is deterioration in the bottom of the slide (see our image). We don't know how easy or hard it would be to restore this slide, so bear that in mind before placing a bid on it. Learn More about condition grades
