Magic lantern slide: Lion






A magic lantern slipping slide showing a lion with moving eyes, made by Harris and Company in 1880. A slipping slide consists of two pieces of glass - both painted with different stages of a movement. Black patches painted on the movable, or 'slipping', slide alternately cover and uncover the stages of movement.
