History of the Kinetograph (PB)


By W. K. L. Dickson and Antonia Dickson

This book is a facsimile edition of the first history of the cinema by W. K. L. Dickson and Antonia Dickson, and was reproduced from W. K. L. Dickson's own annotated copy of the book. When first published in 1895, practical moving pictures were barely two years old, and film projection was yet to be perfected. Dickson's book, acquired by The Museum of Modern Art in 1940, is a unique document, one that allows the reader to experience the wonder and promise of the cinema in its infancy. 54 illustrations.
