Edinburgh Photographic Society

Lantern Section

The Lantern Section began to hold regular monthly in 1892, the year that Edinburgh Photographic Society acquired its own premises at 38 North Castle Street.

Amateur Photographer reported that the EPS Meeting on 6 April 1892:

"It was resolved that a lantern section be formed to take charge of the slides belonging to the Society, to arrange exhibitions from time to time, and to establish a loan and exchange collection of slides, permanent or temporary, the Council being authorised to frame a set of rules for carrying on the scheme."

Almost all of the meetings were devoted to the showing of Members’ slides, with occasional meetings to demonstrate new lantern equipment.

Between 1908 and 1910, R Berry gave two series of meetings on architecture:
