Les Images animées de P. D. Fetzer (6 novembre 1900)
L'opérateur P. D. Fetzer présente des vues animées avec un polyscope :
ROARS OF DELIGHT
[...]
FINE MOVING PICTURES
[...]
Many thousands of happy and cheering Republicans stood for hours in front of the Leader building on Superior street Tuesday night.
[...]
The Leader management, with a desire to fill up the pauses which occurred on account of the necessary delays in receiving the returns, arranged for a number of scenic polyscope views. These views were fine and were thoroughly enjoyed by the spectators. They consisted of a wide range of subjects, and showed the work of Uncle Sam's soldiers in the Philppines and sights along Broadway, New York. The success of the exhibition was in a large part due to its clever manipulation by P. D. Fetzer, an operator from Chicago.
The screen could be clearly seen from all sides, thus accommodating the immense crowd.
