EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century showcases a leaflet advertising The Kinetoscope, an extraordinary invention by Thomas Edison. The image transports us back in time to Queen Street, London, where The American Kinetoscope Company proudly displayed this marvel of technology. The leaflet promises "marvellous living pictures" hinting at the magic that awaited those who stepped into the world of cinema for the first time. It is fascinating to imagine how people must have felt as they read these words and wondered about the wonders they were about to witness. In an era when film was still in its infancy, The Kinetoscope represented a groundbreaking innovation. This engraving captures not only the essence of this revolutionary invention but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our insatiable desire for entertainment. As we gaze upon this print today, it reminds us of how far we have come since then. We now live in an age where movies are readily accessible with just a few clicks or taps on our screens. Yet, there is something nostalgic and enchanting about seeing this historical artifact—a reminder of simpler times when going to see moving pictures was truly awe-inspiring. Let us cherish this glimpse into history and appreciate the pioneers like Edison who paved the way for modern-day cinema.
