MANU Cambridge Scientific Instrument Company Limited. post 1903 Cambridge and London, England. There was a suggestion that this piece of apparatus was part of a Duddell or similar oscillograph. In fact it was the timing mechanism for moving the film past the aperture for continuous exposure in a recording camera. This dates the camera to post 1903 when photographic emulsions were invented by Abney. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | SCIENTIFIC COLLECTION : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
