Keep an eye out for a Ihagee folding cardboard chimney magnifier. it comes in a little slip case and fits in your pocket. it's spring loaded so pops open easily. There is a built in magnifier. You can put it on the glass and then press your eye socket angst it blocking out any light getting past your dark cloth. They are simply stamped Ihagee. 4 inches or so long. 1.5" x 2" straight rectangle. i think they date from the early '30s. It would be nice if someone came out with a modern version. The folding feature is really handy.
