Description

Antique Magic Lantern Glass Slide Projector Complete
Wiener Flachbrenner Germany
This projector was gently used, is attractive and the black paint is finger worn and time worn.
10.25" tall and 10" long, this projector uses a fuel lamp to project light through 2 lenses and a glass slide onto a screen or wall.
Good and likely working condition showing light lampblack on the inside of the front lens which I've test cleaned and is ready for your detailed cleaning as with a modern lens.
This projector was probably last operated about 120 years ago.
The lamp and wick are good with about 4" unused wick.
Gently used with no obvious dents, original flat black paint with gold paint detail.
A few small dings other than worn paint as one might expect for about 6 score years old.
Please see pictures for details and condition.
Shipped by our great USPS.
PayPal only, thanks.
Happy bidding and thanks for reading this far.
