Notes |
This is a set of 40 glass lantern slides and an accompanying booklet to be used during the showing of the slides, presumably for younger audiences. The slides depict various scenes from Livingstone's life and travels and depict him in the usual heroic light. W. Butcher & Son was a London-based supplier of magic lanterns and lantern slides who in 1913 changed their name to W. Butcher & Sons, Ltd. An enlarged set of 49 slides was also produced for the London Missionary Society at around the same time. |
