Pre-WWII German Educational Lantern Slide of Carved Perforated Stone Artifact
Offered is an original pre-World War II German glass lantern slide featuring a studio photograph of a carved perforated stone artifact, believed to represent a prehistoric archaeological object used for educational instruction.
The slide was distributed by Bremische Lichtbildzentrale (Bremen Photographic Image Center), an organization that produced and supplied photographic teaching materials to schools throughout Germany during the early 20th century. The original paper label remains attached and identifies this as Series 5, Slide No. 2. The side strip also references E. A. Seemann of Leipzig, a well-known German publisher of educational and museum materials.
The exact identity of the stone artifact is unknown, but it appears to be a carved prehistoric object with a central perforation, likely photographed as part of an archaeology or ancient history teaching series.
