Dear List Members,
 
Few years after publication, Early Visual Media is pleased to announce the important and unprecedented three volume set 'A History of Pre-Cinema' selected by Stephen Herbert.
 
This three volume set is a unique facsimile re-edition of rare documents on 'Time Based' Visual Media.
The books concentrate on items published before the spread of cinema and later references to devices of that period.
Priority is given to documents that are rare and/or difficult to consult.
For this, the set has great value for researchers by giving insight on vintage documents dating back to the period before the dawn of cinematography & cinema.
 
First published 2000 by Routledge, reprinted 2000, 2001, 2002. Transferred to digital printing 2007.
 
This is a great resource for academic researchers, university & museum libraries and private collectors.
 
 
Best wishes,
 
Thomas
