$12.00

This is a photographic glass magic lantern slide, black and white, labeled, \"Castle Katz, W. N. W. over the Rhine & St. Goar, Germany.\" Note wonderful view of canal boat on the river! Katz Castle is a castle above the German town of St. Goarshausen in Rhineland-Palatinate. This magnificent castle stands on a ledge looking downstream from the riverside at St. Goar. This slide is from a set of slides produced by Keystone View Company around 1905 although many views were taken well before that time. Slides were meant primarily to be used in schools but are now valued because of their historic photographic views. Lantern slides are one of the best untapped resources of photographs there are. Although once plentiful, few of these slides exist today because over the years they have been destroyed and discarded. Slide is 3 1/4\" x 4\", is in very good condition, and can be viewed by projecting, holding it to the light, or placing it on a light box. This slide can be made into a print or poster. If you would like information on having that done AFTER you purchase the view, please let me know. For more information on magic lanterns and slides go to the web site of the Magic Lantern Society of the US and Canada. I offer a reduced postage amount for multiple items IF you email for the cost. Please remember to do this otherwise you will overpay. Thanks for your business, Bob
