This mysterious collection of images have been discovered within the photographic collections of Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums.
Reference: TWCMS -H13098-73-8
The lantern slides are from a series titled 'Psychic Photography From A New Angle' and feature eerie images of the supposedly paranormal and unknown forces caught on camera.
Very little is known of the origins of this collection. The slides were designed to accompany a lecture by a Mr C.P. MacCarthy of 15 Wilkinson Street, Sheffield.
Mr MacCarthy produced the images under test conditions in 1934 in front of an invited committee at 76 Clarkehouse Road, Sheffield. He states the intention was to ‘demonstrate under test conditions Fake Psychic Photography’ to this committee.
Mr MacCarthy states his three reasons for this demonstration.
1.To prove the possibility of Fake under test conditions.
2.To show you cannot be too critical of such phenomena.
3.To indicate the increasing scope for fraud with the probability of genuine spirit photography.
Mr MacCarthy further guarantees ‘in the sum of five pounds, payable to any charitable institution, that no collusion exists, or has existed between myself and any other party in connection with this demonstration.’
Little is currently known of the Psychic demonstration. Who sat on the invited committee? Who was Mr MacCarthy? Why was he investigating Psychic Photography?
Can you help us with this information?

Cheating the law that makes conventional plastic bags illegal, this supermarket has decided to print 'Reusable' on their bags, and make them of slightly heavier grade plastic. They don't offer paper bags anymore (although a note pinned on the checkout says that they are too expensive, and customers will be charged extra if they want double bagging in paper).
These bags are no more reusable than the thinner ones most supermarkets offer. This is just a trick, exploiting a loophole in a law. Hopefully somebody will close that loophole and prevent this kind of abuse of a law that was intended to be good for the environment, not make things worse.

I *finally* made the reusable shopping bag from Keyka Lou. I have had the pattern for SO long and finally decided to make it today. Love it :p I think I'm going to have to make more of these ;)
This is a vintage dress that I altered to include the top of an old cowboy boot. I also added elastic straps and panels, and cut away portions of the old dress, in an attempt to make it fit more actual humans. Like many vintage dresses it had a narrow waist designed to fit over undergarments that aren't really worn that often any more. As a result the dress is too big for me now - thank goodness I was planning on selling it anyway. I have a big sale this weekend and can't wait to see it on someone with boobs.
One of our Sigg bottles and Alladin reusable mugs, made from recycled materials and also recyclable.
I need a new potting bench and this small table took my eye at a local antique fair.
It's already been painted and varnished and now all I have to do is to add some oil cloth on the top and put some preservative on the feet.
Much more satisfying than buying a purpose built bench
Make a statement next time you take a trip to the grocery store with this cute and durable tote bag! Never again will you have to use those ugly disposable plastic bags!! It is similar in design but is wider, taller, and much more attractive...a win win situation! Lovingly handcrafted using fun, high quality cotton fabric from Robert Kaufman and Michael Miller collections.
This eco-friendly reusable market tote bag stands out from the rest and is specially designed to fit on the bag holders on the stands used by most stores!
Besides being much cuter than a plastic bag, this tote is:
*Easy to load and carry.. the handles are wide to distribute the weight making it more comfortable to carry.
*Easy to clean - machine wash (cold) and tumble dry low
*Fully lined and reversible - looks great and adds strength
*Strong and tough - this tote is deceiving as it is not only pretty but tough too! All seams are double stitched and the handles are reinforced.
*Easy to store - when you're done, simply fold up your tote and toss it in your purse or keep it in your car for your next trip to the store!!
Measures approximately 14" wide x 14" high x 6" deep. Made from 100% cotton fabric.
Shoutout to fellow Etsian keykalou for the design and pattern!

Whether we like it or not, abandoned and neglected spaces are a global bi-product of industrial abuse. Due to the wasteful nature of capitalist ideologies, “real world” problems, like “homelessness”, “poverty”, and “social alienation” never seem to get solved, yet rethinking and reusing these neglected and abandoned spaces within our own communities can help to ease these “societal ills”...
Reusing these public spaces causes us to perceive these spaces without economic glasses; it helps us to see thru a more social lens & potentially reverse the process of these problems around the world...

I was given an old and tattered Indian tunic which was too badly worn to repair.
This morning saw the process of reusing begin: I tore it into strips apart from the bodice and sleeves which I left intact.
The pieces have been wound into balls and will be kept in a basket until I can start on my latest project.
The beautiful colours cheered up a very dull and rainy day.
Came out beautiful, reclaimed wood top (built by us) and reused cast iron legs, from the sinks, from a 19-teens former unwed mothers and children's home in Buffalo NY. (a side note: Why was there no home for unwed fathers?...where were they in this situation?...perhaps the Erie County Jail? Maybe a laundry where they could work off their immorality like the ladies might have been apporpriate?)
In our shop at ReUse Action (Reuseaction.com) we fabricate slabs out of the barn beams and building materials we collect from salvage, deconstruction and demolition jobs.
In this project we re-sawed old growth, 3x8 barn joists from Bath NY. They are beautiful old growth southern yellow pine that was cut down in the 1870s-1880s and was hundreds of years old at that time. These trees probably predated the American Revolution. I count about 120 rings per 8 inches!
The slab was built and finished with satin, water-based polyurethane. Nail holes, checks and divots were filled to a high level of finish with West System, clear epoxy.One can see to the bottom of the holes.
The cast iron base was reclaimed from a bathroom of the former unwed mothers and children's house on Harvard Place in Buffalo. It was built in the 19-teens and these legs were ganged together and held up back to back cast iron sinks. We stripped them and repainted them with satin enamel and dry brushed them with pewter paint to highlight the graininess and the embossed letters and other interesting details from the casting.
The distance between the legs was shortened and the threaded rods were shortened and re-threaded to match the length of the table. Matching feet were made and added to the bottom of the legs and levelers were added. The old square head nuts and bolts were saved, cleaned and re-used to preserve the original look.
It is on display in our store and available for $950 in the store. We bases to make 2 more of these, to any length and custom widths and other wood tops. See reuseaction.com
