Add to basketLantern slides are positive transparent photographs made on glass and viewed with the aid of a "magic lantern," the predecessor of the slide projector. With exceptional detail and a rich tonal range lantern slide plates were commercially manufactured for home entertainment, public lectures, and photographic exhibitions from the 1860s to the 1950s.~~Around the time these images were taken the largely female immigrant workforce shut down the Everett Mills for 2 months in what is known as the Bread and Roses strike of 1912. The Industrial Workers of the World union supported the striking workers, resulting in pay increases, overtime pay, and wide-ranging consequences for worker s rights. ~~These glass lantern slides were produced by the Keystone View Company s Education. They developed and sold Glass lantern slides to schools throughout the country, along with stereoscopic views and equipment to view them. These slides depict the mass production of paper and fabric in Lawrence and Holyoke, Massachusetts c.1916. ~~3 ¼" x 4" with black paper border. Each is labeled, captioned, and numbered 14-20. Image area is 3" x 2 ¾". The border is torn on one side of one slide. ~.
