MODERNIST PRAXINOSCOPE - BLACK FILM POSTERS Best First MonographOptical Toy, Praxinoscope Miniature Reproduction Transforms static images into a moving sequence, thanks to retinal persistence. A circular drum is rotated with mirrors in the centre of the drum reflecting images drawn on strips of paper placed around it.
