A magic lantern slide from the H.M.J. Underhill Archive showing two views of Wayland's Smithy 'cave' as seen in the late 19th Century. There's another slide showing a plan of Wayland's Smithy on the same web site.

This wonderful magic lantern slide seems to have been removed from the site. Both links now return an Error 404 page. Boo and hiss. Can't find it on the web neither. Double boo and hiss. wysefool Posted by wysefool

Wysefool,

You're still out there, Horray!! Came across your fascinating posts about the Blowing Stone after paying a flying visit last week.

Hope all is well with you.

Hiya Wysefool!

The link you provided is the same as the one in the title of Kammer's posting. :) Dunno what the "another slide" one would have linked to tho!

But yes - nice to see you! :)
