Here's a hard to find Edison Home Kinetoscope motion picture filmstrip that dates to around 1912. It's a Class C movie entitled "The Farmer's Daughter." Yes, you read that correctly. I have not seen the movie, but it sounds like it could be...interesting. The film is complete and continuous, and it's in its original canister, with its original top.
As you can see in the photographs, the filmstrip comprises 3 parallel tracks squeezed onto a 22mm wide filmstrip. The film does not appear to be any damaged anywhere, nor do there appear to be any splices. The canister is in good condition, with its original thumbscrew that tightens down the top. Overall this is a nice old Kinetoscope film, and you rarely see them anymore, in any condition.
That's about it. I will package it properly so that it arrives at your doorstep safely. I have been shipping fragile technical antiques for years, and if you check my feedback, you'll see that I know how to do it correctly.
