Lincoln's patented version had the viewing slits on a level above the pictures, which allowed the use of easily replaceable strips of images. It also had an illustrated paper disc on the base, which was not always exploited on the commercially produced versions. On the advice of a local bookstore owner, Lincoln had sent a model to Milton Bradley and Co. in an attempt to market the animation device.Herbert, Stephen. (n.d.) From Daedaleum to Zoetrope, Part 1.

It projected six pictures from a long slide and used a hand-cranked mechanism for intermittent movement of the slide and synchronized shutter action. The mechanism became a key to the development of the movie camera and projector. The Choreutoscope was used at the first professional public demonstration of the Kinetoscope to explain its principles.Rossell Deac https://books.google.com/books?id=WVVX4NHS8TwC&q=choreutoscope&pg=PA86 Living Pictures: The Origins of the Movies 1998 State University of New York Press 0-585-06234-X Albany, New York 4263655486 Births April April 23: Willie Riley, English novelist, (Riley had a career in the sale of magic lantern slides and relevant equipment until 1914, when, with the onset of World War I, his family's company failed.
