These Photos Unlocks Some Mysteries!<\/p>\n

If you ever wondered what happened to NBC’s “Felix The Cat” mechanical camera after tests were concluded in 1932, here’s the answer. It was on display at the RCA Pavilion at the 1939 World’s Fair in New York.<\/p>\n

In the diagram, we see it in the Museum being displayed along with E F Alexandrson’s mechanical camera from 1930. In the photos, we see it being demonstrated at the fair. The question is, what happened to it after the fair closed? I’ve seen a replica, but I think the real thing is long gone. At least we know they saved it for a while anyway. Enjoy and share! -Bobby Ellerbee<\/p>\n
