RARE ANTIQUE Magic Lantern Slide BOSTON MUSEUM C1870 VICTORIAN PHOTO USA MASS. An incredibly rare image of Moses Kimballs museum. I have dated the image between 1860 – 1880 just looking at the location and people (see photo 4 – the womens dress is certainly from this period) however from research I believe the slide was not produced until the 1880’s. Boston Museum and Gallery of Fine Arts. Was a theatre, wax museum, natural history museum, zoo and art museum in 19th Centuary Boston. Established the enterprise in 1841. The Boston Museum exhibited items acquired from Ethan Allen Greenwoods former New England Museum; tableaux of wax figures; live animals; and artworks by John Singleton Copley, Gilbert Stuart, Benjamin West, Thomas Badger and others. Early live shows presented, for instance, the musical olio, consisting of solos on glass bells, and birch-bark whistling. Theatrical performances began in 1843. Through the years, notable performers included: Lawrence Barrett, Edwin Booth, John Wilkes Booth, Annie Clark, Richard Mansfield, E H Southern, Mary Ann Vincent and William Warren. An advertisement of 1850 described the museum’s key attractions. The museum is the largest, most valuable, and best arranged in the United States. It comprises no less than seven different museums, to which has been added the present year, besides the constant daily accumulation of articles, one half of the celebrated Peales Philadelphia Museum, swelling the already immense collection to upwards of half a million articles, the greatest amount of objects of interest to be found together at any one place in America; and an entirely new hall of wax statuary…. And the immense collection of birds, beasts, fish, insects and reptiles… Paintings, engravings and statuary… Family of Peruvian mummies; the duck-billed platypus… The curious half-fish, half-human Feejee Mermaid which P T Barnum later. The Museum held a recruiting office for Company D. Of the 22nd Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry in 1861 at the start of the Civil War. Please see my shop for similar slides.
