In the era before movies, the magic lantern was the only way to show moving pictures. It was a device that was similar in some ways to a slide projector: it could display pictures, animated images, and even illustrated lyrics to popular songs. An early version existed in the 1600s, but the magic lantern (sometimes called a stereopticon) became very popular in the late 1800s as projection techniques improved, allowing more interesting and colorful slides to be displayed and enjoyed. I enclose a link to a historical society that preserves these slides.
