Best Answer

The Etch-A-Sketch contains very fine aluminum powder, which sticks to the glass. The knobs are connected to wires and pulleys, which move a plastic stylus vertically and horizontally. The stylus scrapes a tiny amount of the aluminum powder off the glass, leaving a visible line. If you draw all over the screen and clear away all the aluminum powder, you can see the mechanism inside.
