I was lucky enough today to obtain over 200 Glass Lantern Slides some colour but mostly black and white...... Has anyone had a photographic studio take these slides and make them into proper photos..... Guess I am going to have to look for a projector now.....

I don't think I have seen a full set of these images so it does sound like a summer project?? If you capture the images, I will host them. How does that sound? Best wishes David Dr David Biggins

I tried to scan a couple and then enlarge them but that did not work, will do a little more experimenting.... Mike Life Member Past-President Calgary Military Historical Society O.M.R.S. 1591

Hope you have some sucess scanning them, would be great to see.
I had some good finds today at a medal fair, got some of the stereo type photos, have scanned them and about to post.
