Original Zoetrope Strip from around 1890 -- Format: c. 87 x 8.5 cm -- slightly stained, otherwise in good condition. -- The Zoetrope is a simple optical device that mechanically generates moving images. It is one of the precursors of cinematography. The Zoetrope consists of a dark, open-top rotatable drum with narrow slits at regular intervals. The Zoetrope was invented in 1834 by the English mathematician William George Horner (1786-1837) under the name of Daedaleum or Daedatelum. In the 1860s, the invention was spread under the name Zoetrope or Wheel of life. To date, the Zoetrope is known primarily as a children's toy. | This is an original! - No emphasis! - No copy! -- This is an original! No copy! - No reprint!
