Cast Iron Clamshall Mutoscope Mod. DL

Produced by the 'American Mutoscope and Biograph Co., the Clamshell Mutoscope is the most desirable of all mutoscopes. The cast iron clamshell is so named because of the clamshell design on both sides of the mutoscope. It is an original restored mutoscope with a replacement marquee, in working order, with original Mutoscope reel no.7676 showing a daughter of Diana hunting in the forest. Tin mutoscopes are rare but all-cast-iron mutoscopes are even rarer and extremely hard to find. Total height: 190cm
