Glass Lantern Slides Lecture
Seth Mendell, local historian, and popular guest lecturer to the members of the Bay Club will share the Mattapoisett Historical Society’s glass slide collection at the Golf House restaurant April 22. Glass lantern slides were developed in Germany in the 1850’s and “Magic Lantern” slide shows were very popular through the turn of the century. Seth will give a detailed narration of each slide which depicts life in Mattapoisett in the late 1800s.
The Bay Club at Mattapoisett is a country club with an eighteen hole championship level golf course and residential property located in Southeastern MA. To arrange a private tour please contact Dave Andrews via email or phone, 508-758-9543.
