Film projector for children patented on 1 September 1933 by the Barcelona company Manufacturas Bebés Isuar. It used a system similar to that of mutoscopes to create a moving image. The cards with the images were attached to a long cloth tape, which was rotated using a handle. The system for projecting the images of the cards on the screen was by reflection of light on the cards, illuminated by two powerful bulbs located inside the device. This device belonged to Tomàs Mallol, who played with it as a child.
