Teddy "Le Disque Animé"

French animated serie from the US "Red Raven" copyright. Each record turns at 78 RPM and allows to see the animated groove on the praxinoscope principe . A special 16 sided mirror is needed to watch the animation. The records included a little mirrored device that you pop onto the turntable's spindle that reflected the animation in such a way that while the record plays you get to see a little cartoon These records are not picture discs : the pictures are part of the center label [u]At least 6 different countries marketed animated discs :[/u] US : label "Red Raven Records" : 8 releases France : label "Teddy Le disque animé" 11 releases Germany : label "Teddy "Die Lebende Schallplatte" 11 releases Italy : label "Mamil, Moviton system" : 14 releases Netherland : label "Grammovisie" 10 releases Japan The german and italian records are flexi discs.
