This is a photographic glass magic lantern slide, black and white, labeled, "Uxmal Ruins, Statues of Mayon God, Chas-Mool." Uxmal is 78 kilometers south of Merida in the state of Yucatan, Mexico. It is estimated that most of the architecture was built between 700 and 1100. It had a population of 25,000 people. Much of the construction was done with cement so it is very well preserved. Magic Lantern Slides are one of the best untapped resources for antique photographs there are. Slides were usually discarded after a relatively short period of use so are difficult to find. Slide is 3 1/4" x 4", is in very good condition, and can be viewed by projecting, holding it to the light, or placing it on a light box. This slide can be made into a photograph or poster. If you would like information on having that done AFTER you purchase the view, please let me know. You can learn more about magic lanterns and slides by going to . I offer a reduced postage amount for multiple items IF you email for the cost. Please remember to do this otherwise you will overpay. Thanks for your business, Bob
