Abstract: It is difficult to trace to its beginning and fix a date for the conception of an idea that leads to an invention. Of the interesting impressions of my childhood, the one made by the toy known as the Zoëtrope was among the most outstanding. The idea that its principles might be applied to producing a series of consecutive instantaneous photographs of objects in motion, so as to reproduce the motion, was suggested by something I had read, and the fascinating thought persisted in my mind until the Anschutz tachyscope I saw at the Chicago World's Fair in 1893 brought a realization of its actual accomplishment.
