COMIC TALE OF A VICTORIAN PENNY FARTHING CYCLIST C1890 12 Magic Lantern Slides

A comical Victorian story set about a man who buys a penny farthing bicycle and the mishaps he has. Dated to the 1890's the slides have been hand tinted and rare.
Magic lantern slides were used at home and in theatres as entertainment before films and I think these would and still do create a great deal of amusement.
