Magic lantern slide: Man in Top Hat
Hand-coloured magic lantern pivoted slide of man wearing top hat.
Pivoted lantern slides are designed to provide movement in the projected lantern image - particularly rocking or swinging motion. They are similar to slipping slides except that the moving glass parts swing about a fixed pivot point rather than sliding. The pivoted glass slides were moved by hand by wiggling the small handles at the side of the wooden frame.
