Tacoma native and retired computer programmer John Potter will be our guest for a unique History Talk at the Schmidt House on Thursday, February 15. For over 40 years Potter has been a member of the Magic Lantern Society—a Magic Lantern is an original image projector.
Potter will begin his talk with a brief history of the projector, and then he’ll show slides from 1900 to1930, including images of early advertising, political history, and classic photos and ‘moving images before moving pictures.’
