1890 John Arthur Roebuck Rudge and William Friese Greene and Mortimer Evans, in England, construct a simple, limited motion projector. 1891 Edison’s Kinetograph camera and Kinetoscope viewing apparatus completed and the patent application made. The patent was not issued for two years. 1892 Reynaud runs the Théâtre Optique in Paris, the first film theatre which uses hand-drawn and not photographed pictures. 1893 Marey develops a motion picture projector which uses the sun for its light source. Greene patents a camera and projector system which is limited in scope. 1894 Edison peep-show Kinetoscopes go on display on April 14th, at 1155 Broadway, New York, and later that year on Oxford Street, London, and in Paris. These demonstrations influence a number of scientists and photographers who finally solved the problem of screen projection of continuous motion pictures. Anschütz patents an early projection model in France. Demeny uses a camera and projector system somewhat similar to that developed under Marey. 1895 Successful projection of motion pictures onto a screen achieved by Louis and Auguste Lumière with the Cinématographe, in France; by Robert W. Paul with films made by Birt Acres in the Bioscope, in England; by Thomas Armat, C. Francis Jenkins, the Lathams, and others in the United States. 1896 Screen projection of motion pictures becomes a commercial reality and the magic shadow art starts on the way to becoming the greatest entertainment medium ever known. In New York the premiere is held at Koster & Bial’s Music Hall, Herald Square, New York City, on the evening of April 23, 1896. In addition to those named, the following, among many, were also working on screen projection in the 1895–96–97 period of success: Georges Melies, who brought the spirit of Phantasmagoria to the modern motion picture; Max Skladanowski, who claimed a projection show at the Wintergarten in Düsseldorf in the Fall of 1896; Owen A.
