This is a fantastic opportunity to own a working vintage Optiscope Model 12 Lantern Projector, complete with a rare and varied slide collection – a true gem for collectors or vintage tech enthusiasts.

Included in this bundle:

Optiscope Lantern Projector Model 12, in full working condition (as seen in photos).

A stunning vintage leather-look case, original to the projector, with a working lock and key – beautifully preserved and perfect for display.

A small light box – included free with the lot. This is currently untested as it has no plug, but there’s no visible reason why it wouldn’t work.

An incredible collection of approx. 86 glass slides, comprising:

Historic scenes from across Scotland and England – ideal for collectors of local history and vintage imagery.

A rare selection of coloured cartoon and comical slides, which are very hard to come by and highly collectible.

The projector itself is a fine example of British craftsmanship from the 1940s/50s, and it's rare to find one in such good condition and still operational. The bellows, lens, and fittings are all intact and working smoothly.

This is more than just a projector – it’s a piece of storytelling history, offering a glimpse into how entertainment and education looked decades ago.

Don’t miss out on this exceptional vintage set – especially with the rare coloured cartoon slides included. A perfect piece for collectors, museums, or anyone looking to own a slice of mid-century visual culture.
