Abstract

This study is an approach to the mutoscope and kinora rolls using copies from the Tomàs Mallols collection preserved in the Museu del Cinema de Catalunya. After identifying and analysing the rolls, a preservation-restoration procedure was proposed and undertaken, as was the later digitalization and animation of one of the rolls to increase awareness of the material and, at the same time, promote the collection.
