Abstract
A critical survey of old and new literature reveals the development of the modern slide projector out of the old “art of mirror writing” which in its turn can be derived from the silhouette. A wrong interpretation of a passage in an old book which describes a camera obscura caused the wrong opinion that the slide projector must have developed from the camera obscura. This contrivance, however, has been the forerunner of the modem photographic camera.
