A wide range of lantern slides in original wooden boxes illustrate historical and social topics such as the French Revolution, the socialist Revolution and their ‘werkmanshuizen’ in Belgium and World War One is kept at the AMSAB-ISG. They depict victims of industrial exploitation, war and political revolution. The illustrations on some slides are similar to those in book publications such as ‘Arm Vlaanderen’ by August De Winne (1903) and Krieg dem Kriege by Ernst Friedrich (1924).
