A Brief History Of Photography By Objects – 7 – The Edison Kinetoscope 1893

Edison Projecting Kinetoscope, ca. 1902

Happy Birthday #AnnieOakley! 🎉 This famous sharpshooter was the perfect subject to practice capturing rapid motion on #ThomasEdison's new kinetograph. These films of her rapidly firing targets and shooting down balls were among the earliest to be featured at kinetoscope parlors in New York in 1894! | Thomas Edison

captivatinghistory on Instagram: "In 1894, the Mutoscope became a widely popular coin-operated motion picture viewer, offering audiences a novel way to enjoy early films. By inserting a coin and turning a hand crank, users set a drum of still photographs into motion. As the images rapidly flipped past a lens, they produced the illusion of movement, much like a flipbook. Its straightforward design and ease of use made it a favored alternative to the Kinetoscope."
