    I discovered several of these and am wondering what they are? Ambrotype? Collodion? Daguerreotype? Please help!

      As for what a magic lantern is, it's an early projector which causes the image to expand into a seemingly life-size projection on a screen or wall. Early ones were flame-powered. Most later ones were electric. They were very novel back in the day.
