Thought I'd post a few more scanned magic lantern slide images. All are images of Glasgow.

The first one is called "View of the Clyde."

The one below is the "Broomielaw Bridge" in Glasgow.

The one below is titled "Municipal Buildings, Glasgow."

These are superb. I really do like looking at this sort of image, The first is my favourite thanks for sharing Brian :)
 
That last one is George Square. It hasnt really changed much in all these years.

Thanks, Kev. Its a pleasure to share these. Wish I had more.

Absolutely correct, Allan. George Square it is. Thanks for posting the modern fotie.
 
I really enjoy seeing stuff like this. Thanks!
 
Just been reading about the bridge. Thomas Telford finished it in 1836. Its no longer the original bridge as its been upgraded and rebuilt so many times but it is still in the same styleas Telford intended it to be. :)
