Traffic In King's Road, Chelsea - 1890

Purportedly, there is no proof that this film was shot at the date claimed here, or that it is the actual "Traffic In King's Road, Chelsea" Film. William Friese-Greene (producer of said film) told people in 1890, in Chester, that he had "invented" the moving image, but if you read the actual reports, he held up something and said that what he was holding was film. It was never shown to anyone there and no third party was ever able to verify his claim. Replica's of his cameras have made from his plans but they only run at 4 frames per second.

However, it is very likely that this is indeed the actual "Traffic In King's Road, Chelsea" Film. Speculation and theories will abound as to its authenticity perhaps indefinitely.

Chelsea is in old London, England.
