Jean Schoenner - untitled catalog of toy lanterns
A trade catalogue of magic lanterns, fog-picture apparatus and magioscopes issued around 1880 by Jean Schoenner's factory for mechanical-optical toys in Nuremberg, aimed at toy dealers and wholesale buyers. Wood-engraved product cuts show lacquered tin and mahogany lantern bodies, brass lens tubes, chimneys and scrolled feet, each captioned in German with model numbers and mark prices, and set beside blackletter and shaded display headings useful for apparatus silhouettes and period type.
