SLIDE CONDITION: Please review the seller's notes/ aboveconditiondescription . Please zoom in and examine all pictures carefully. I do not usually list defects in the pictures. I do not list problems which are typical for slides this old, which could include the following: clearly visiblealso The glass may be dusty, dirty, sticky, or have smudge marks (I do not clean before selling). The glass may have minor scratches, surface abrasions or small nicks on the edges or corners. (unless they are behind the tape and I don't know they are there). Glass: I make a special note of any cracks Small specks, scratches or other imperfections may be present in the image. There can be browning, yellowing, or fading of the image, particularly where the image meets the paper mat. In some cases, there can be oxidation, heat damage, crackling of the image, or other deterioration. I try to make a note when there is unusual damage (such as bleeding of the image, etc.) but please examine pictures carefully in case I missed something.Image: Most slides have a paper mat between the sheets of glass. There may be age-related shrinkage tears, fading, wrinkling, oxidation residue, or other damage to the mat.Paper Mat: The tape holding the slide together may be loose, ripped, torn, damaged, brittle, or partially missing. The tape can sometimes be so brittle (or the glue on the tape so old) than ANY handling will cause some of the tape to come off. In other words, some of the tape visible in the pictures may not be there by the time the slide arrives at your door. I generally don't sell slides which are completely "falling apart"but if I did, I would document thatThe tape may have been replaced or repaired over the years, sometimes with tape which is NOT appropriate for a glass slide. In some cases, new tape may not stand up to the heat of old projectors. Binding Tape: . In some cases, US-sized slides (4" X 3 1/4") were British-sized slides (3 1/4" X 3 1/4") and have been converted to the larger size (Usually by adding a larger cover glass and putting filler glass or cardboard on the edges of the original image glass). The conversion was often done by the company who originally sold the slides and is often done so well (it is almost always hidden by the binding tape) that I don't notice it. If I do notice it, I will add the note "" to the condition description.Size-Converted Slides: ORIGINALLYsize-converted slide If there is a date/year in the title of this listing, (such as artwork) pictured in the slide. It may not be the date the slide was actually created. Please review all of the pictures and zoom in to get the full titles of the slide. I might add information to the title which is NOT on the label, and such information is MY BEST GUESS. Labels on slides are occasionally wrong, so please do your own verification. There may be writing, scribbles, or other marks on labels. Labels may be torn, faded, starting to come off, or even missing. In some cases there may be a label on the reverse side which is not shown. The item details I use are just to help people find the slide and may be wrong. Dates, Titles & Labels: it usually comes from the label on the slide and is probably the date of the item For slides framed in stapled cardboard (typically movie slides), there can be rust on the staples, slightly deteriorating cardboard, marks on the cardboard, etc. For slides framed in pressed cardboard, the cardboard can sometimes be separating or deteriorating.Cardboard Frames: In the item specifics, I typically identify a lantern slide as an "" - That is because it is a vintage slide and not a modern or "recent" reproduction. Slides that are photos of artworks are always reproductions of the artwork, but the slide is an original slide. The slide may have been made years AFTER the original artwork. I call these slides lantern slides, even though later slides were often just called "lantern slides." I use the term "magic" in the listings (especially the titles of the listings) because it is commonly used today in searches for lantern slides.Definition of Terms: original printitself "magic" I use a piece of tissue paper between the slide and the light source. This creates a paper-texture effect, especially in white areas. EBay ALSO modifies the quality of the photos uploaded. The photo quality is almost ALWAYS worse than the actual slides.Photos are hard to get perfect: Between the camera I use and the computer screen you use, the color or shading in the pictures will NOT be perfect. In particular, labels often appear to be more yellow or darker than they actually are.Color/Shading: The actual slide is usually more "in focus" than the photos. Especially when there is a lot of BLACK in the image, the cover glass often shows reflections that are NOT in the actual slide (usually a reflection of my hand, the camera, or my t-shirt). I take the pictures from the LABEL side of the slide, which is often the BACK side. This means the photos in the listing MIGHT be a mirror image of how the slide should look when it is projected. Focus, Reflections & Mirror Images: Inventory Code: GN-257International Customers: Shipping options seem to change often. If you are buying more than one glass slide, please contact me BEFORE buying so I can figure out the best way to help you save on combined shipping
