mutoscope card - Mutoscope cards were 5.25" x 3.25" (13.3 cm x 8.25 cm) cards were published during the 1940s by the International Mutoscope Reel Company and other firms.[1] They are not individual pictures from Mutoscope reels and have no connection whatsoever to the Mutoscope motion-picture device. All carry the inscription "A Mutoscope card." They were sold from coin-operated vending machines in places such as amusement parks. Most Mutoscope cards are of "pin-up" material, but some featured other kinds of images such as Jimmy Hatlo cartoons.[2] Mutoscope cards are a recognized category of collectible.
In the literature of cinematography, the phrase "Mutoscope cards" is also used to refer to the individual cards comprising a Mutoscope reel, corresponding to individual frames of the original film from which the reel was produced.[
