Camera-viewer-projector of animated photographs on a celluloid disk. It has a shutter and a system that allows the film to travel intermittently. This device could perform various functions. First of all, it was a pocket film camera that shot short films or animated photographs on a celluloid disc. Each disc could record up to thirty-five frames, which were recorded on the perimeter of the disc. This device was also a viewer and a home projector of the animated photographs shot with this camera. We don’t know the name of the company that sold and marketed it, although the London company The Animated Photograph Company Limited marketed a similar device to it in 1906.
