Important Added Info: These slides are the kind that have two panes of glass that are taped together with black tape around all four edges (front and back), typical of many older glass slides. We have provided a high quality scan of each image, but we have not taken photos of the slides, because there would really be very little to see! Condition: very good. One of the slides has small glass loss in a blank corner and is missing tape on two borders. Another has loose tape on one border. The other two are in pretty nice condition!
