THE SCIENCE OF ZOOPRAXOGRAPHY.
Made Popular by Suggestive Tracings from "Animal Locomotion."
------
A series of FIFTY ENGRAVINGS, each of which illustrates from 12 to 15
consecutive phases of some complete movement, photographed from life.
The successive phases of each action are arranged in a circle NINE INCHES
IN DIAMETER; for reduced copies of some of which see appendix A.
Printed on six-ply Bristol-board and enclosed in
A STRONG CLOTH PORTFOLIO,
size 10×12 inches; price, Five Dollars in the United States; or One Guinea
in Great Britain.
Sent free of postage upon receipt of price, to any country within the
Universal Postal Union.

To convert the circles of figures into a
ZOOPRAXISCOPE,
cut out the disc, and, radiating from the centre thereof, about midway from
the margin, cut or stamp thirteen equidistant perforations; each an inch
long, and about the sixteenth of an inch wide.
Pin the centre of the disc to a handle and revolve it in the direction of
the arrow, at a distance of about twenty-four inches, in front of a mirror.
By looking through the _upper_ series of perforations at the reflection of
the _lower_ series of figures, a semblance of the original movements of
life will be seen.
