Mutoscope #5 -- August 16, 2011

The blue clamshell Mutoscope at Disneyland. This year I did not get to watch any movies on the Mutoscopes. I saw another Mutoscope in Virginia City and did not get to watch that one, either.

Mutoscope #4 -- August 15, 2010

I photographed Charlie Chaplin and Mabel Normand on a Mutoscope card in the Penny Arcade at Disneyland in July, 2010.

Abbey Lincoln died. A voice for justice.

Mutoscope #3 -- July 31, 2009

I photographed this freshly-painted Mutoscope at Disneyland's Penny Arcade in July, 2009. I did not get to watch a reel.

Today we took a drive to Half Moon Bay.

Mutoscope #2 -- September 23, 2008

A Mutoscope at San Francisco's Musee Mecanique (http://www.museemechanique.org/) . The sign is wrong. I took the photo on 20-September-2008.

I got to visit Oracle World a bit today. They are pushing green very hard. The large sign at Third and Howard is not a video screen this year. Throughout the gardens are the three standard San Francisco cash containers.

Mutoscope #1 -- August 20, 2008

The Mutoscope is a hand-cranked entertainment machine that works like a giant flipbook. I tried to build a device like it, but always had trouble getting it to work.

I took the photo at Disneyland in July, 2006.
