Filmed in 1892 by the Thomas Edison Company at Edison's Laboratories in New Jersey and directed by William Dickson, it was an experimental film, never released to the public and made only four years after the first official motion pictures. The film was part of a group of four Edison films that were the first to to test the new kinetoscope process, and be photographed in 35mm. Selected frames were published in the journal “The Phonogram” in 1892. Originally only a second long, this version has been looped and progressively slowed down from a normal starting speed to an 8x slow speed. Source:
