Re: glass slides

[John Simmons <productions@johnesimmons.com>]

My grandmother used to project her glass slides with a projector made by 
Argus.  I don't know a model number, but it worked entirely manually. It 
had a sliding mechanism that stuck out from the side, and loaded the 
slide from the side rather than the top.  I would suspect any of the 
older projectors that did not automatically load slides from a tray 
would work.
