Magic Lantern Slide: Hyposulphite of soda (1 to 4)
Alfred Rowden was a keen amateur photographer and natural historian in Exeter. He often gave talks at local field clubs, illustrated with magic lantern slides that he created or purchased from commercial manufacturers. This slide is from a lecture about crystals and shows a photographic image of the soda crystal enlarged using a Polariscope.
