TAKING PICTURES FOR THE “MUTOSCOPE.”
DRYING AND RETOUCHING ROOM. “MUTOSCOPE” SHOWN IN THE FOREGROUND.
THE SAUSAGE FACTORY.
The films are unwound on to large wooden drums about the same size as the reels, where they are carefully dried. At the far end of the room are seen the machines for cutting up the bromide prints. Here also is carried on the work of retouching the films and preparing them for use in the biograph and mutoscope pictures. The biograph is somewhat similar to machines which we have already described.
The annexed engravings show pictures of clay-pigeon shooting and of the firing of a ten-inch disappearing gun at Sandy Hook.
