Parting the Veil of Faery:
The Colmore Fatagravures, said to date from the 1890s. "A Scottish adventurer, inventor, and photographer named
Neville Colmore claimed to have constructed a device capable of '...parting the veil of Faery...' The device, which he called the Spectobarathrum, along with all of the images he claimed to have made were believed destroyed in a fire. I believe some of these images and related artefacts may have survived."
