1910//20 Ballooning Kinetascope

1910//20, Ballooning Kinetascope (?) (4x1") An unusual (and fascinating) cylindrical, cardboard box of about 100 (?) different original small black and white photos (1.5x.5") attached to a central brass core hub that is stamped "Kinora Co., Ltd. London 585". The photos depict an English balloon meeting. We're not exactly sure as to how this works, but it appears to be designed to be spun so as to make a moving picture of the photos. Unusually fine condition and undoubtedly quite rare.
