SIR JOHN FREDERICK WILLIAM HERSCHEL (1792-1871)
Herschel comes up with a Photographic process known as the ‘Cyanotype’. It required ferrocyanate of potassium and allowed for inexpensive but permanent prints.

Below, Herschel both young and older and two Cyanotypes.

Beale was first published November 1865 when he drew this (below) Panoramic "Base-Ball Match" illustration for ‘Harper's Weekly’.

This began his career. He was soon seen in other major national periodicals like ‘Daily Graphic’ and ‘Frank Leslie's Weekly’. Image The Henry Ford. https://t.co/07exi2Ph2X

Artists Holly Ward & Kevin Schmidt constructed a ‘Camera Obscura’ that looked like a large gold ‘nugget.’ It's placed on the old dredge piles of Dawson City, where tailings from gold mining once accumulated.

It projects onto varnished linen, the Yukon River landscape over 180˚. https://t.co/4f5l7lOiTu

Fay had 123 film roles, her last being ‘Gideon’s Trumpet' (1980). She was asked by fellow Canadian James Cameron to play Rose Calvert for his ‘Titanic’ (1997) but she declined.

In 2004, Wray was approached by Peter Jackson to appear in his King Kong remake but she also said no. https://t.co/VZgoKdf2mQ

Wray is mostly renowned for playing Ann Darrow as the female lead in King Kong. She became a ‘WAMPAS Baby Star’ in 1926.

She was contracted to Paramount Pictures as a teen, where she made more than a dozen feature films, her first film at the age of 16. https://t.co/E49PZMf9vv

The repeated castigation of the views as “gratuitous” suggests their unwelcome status, not merely for the distraction & congestion they caused, but also for the content of the advertisements.

The ‘Galantee’ showmen gave way to the 'Professors', showmen who had access to more elaborate equipment and wonderful, but expensive, animated slides.

Robertson was a ‘professor’ of the ‘Magic Lantern’ show and perfected the ‘Phantasmagoria’. https://t.co/mBcmUHSj9y

The 'Galantee' showmen or Savoyards put on lantern shows that became known as ‘Galantee So’ which translates to “a fine show”.

The subjects would probably relate to Biblical, moral and current events, and the showman would create stories for the children watching. https://t.co/QZGJm9N4tY

The Tapestry is a journey, just as a film is a journey, with players, backgrounds, action, love, hate, desire and above all, a blockbuster ending.
