Newell Mutograph Co., 1900-1909 Specimen Stock certificate. NJ. 190- (1900-1909). Specimen. Odd shs, green. Eagle and shield. A mutograph or mutoscope is a device for creating a moving picture from a series of still photographs. Both the kinetoscope and the mutograph required the viewer to peer into a viewing slot while turning a handle. But whereas Edison’s device used a strip of film, Casler’s was very close in idea to the flip-book, in which riffling through a sequence of still pictures seems to create a moving image. In the mutoscope the pictures were arranged around a drum; turning a handle caused them to appear one after the other at about 16 frames a second, the minimum needed to give an illusion of movement. The big problem with both the kinetoscope and the mutograph was that only one person could watch at a time. It was created by the American inventor Herman Casler and patented in 1894. Extremely rare pre-silent film era movie certificate. SBNC. XF. (Ex. John E.
