This image of a man swallowing a rat was very popular throughout the nineteenth century. This version of it uses two glass slides, one to open and close the man's mouth, the other to move the rat forwards. Another option was to use a rotating disc behind the main image, which would carry the rat up the side of the bed and into the man's mouth. You can find out about other rotating slides on the next page.
