Un bref compte rendu est publié dans la presse :
By arrangement with Mr. Wybert Reeve and Monsieur Sestier the Cinematographe was shown at the Institute Hall on Monday night. There was a good house, and two series of pictures were exhibited by means of the oxyhydrogen light. The views were a revelation to those who had not seen them before, and prompted enthusiastic applause. A large number of the scenes were repeated.South Australian Register, Adelaide, mercredi 3 février 1897, p. 7.
