Filmascope
Below is a reel of film filmed
by the James C. Muir and Company, a Philadelphia firm. This reel
contains 32 pictures (no text) from the Wee Folks Cinderella Series Tom
Thumb Book (http://henryaltemus.com/series/series188.htm).
The reel is titled "Filmascope" Tom Thumb and was "reproduced with the
Permission of Henry Altemus Company Philadelphia", Copyright 1921.
Apparently Muir produced a number of these little reels in the late
1920's. I presume that the little metal canister is an original.
