Title from top of first segment of panoramic strip.
Twelve scenes from the story of Cinderella are presented side by side to form a long panoramic strip 15 cm. in height. The strip is mounted on two wooden rollers within a one-sided box; exterior cranks turn the strip. The panorama appears in a cut-out window on the box and printed decorations on the area around the window make it look like a stage, with a proscenium arch, stage floor, an orchestra and, on the sides, audience members in boxes.
An explanation of each scene printed at top of strip is revealed as cranks are turned.
