EDITORS COMMENTS
This image from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, available through Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Victorian and Edwardian magic lantern projectors. Magic lanterns were popular forms of entertainment and education in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, using glass slides and a bright light source to project enlarged images onto a screen. In this photograph, we see a collection of wrench gas bags, an essential component of the limelight magic lantern projector. The limelight projector was an advanced type of magic lantern that used a gas flame to produce a bright light. The wrench gas bags, as indicated by their name, were filled with a volatile gas mixture, typically a combination of coal gas and air, which was used to fuel the limelight. The image shows the bags neatly arranged on a table, their distinctive shape and texture revealing the various stages of use and wear. The bags were made of a sturdy material, such as leather or rubber, and featured a valve and hose connection for easy attachment to the projector. The bags were filled through the valve, and as the gas was used, the bag would shrink, eventually needing to be replaced. This photograph offers a unique window into the inner workings of a limelight magic lantern projector and the importance of these wrench gas bags in creating the captivating images that brought magic and wonder to audiences during the Victorian and Edwardian eras.
