I was told there are good people on this site that can help me with magic lantern slides. Specifically I was told someone in Australia. After doing a little web searching I found very little good information. Well little good information to me. So I am putting out a request for help. They appear to be medical in nature. Study slides? They measure 3 ΒΌ" wide and 4" tall. Since I am not a collector, I am trying to decide what to do with them. So any help would be appreciated. If Im in the wrong section please let me know.

You will probably want to contact the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia, and specifically their curatorial branch (details at http://nfsa.gov.au/collection/collection-offers/). They also have a guide to the history, collection and preservation of magic lantern slides at http://www.nfsa.gov.au/research/papers/ ... ma-slides/, with some useful links.
