Gallop!: A Scanimation Picture BookThere's never before been a book like Gallop Employing a patented new technology called Scanimation, each page is a marvel that brings animals, along with one shining star, to life with art that literally moves. It's impossible not to flip the page, and flip it again, and again, and again. A first book of motion for kids, it shows a horse in full gallop and a turtle swimming up the page. A dog runs, a cat springs, an eagle soars, and a butterfly
There's never before been a book like Gallop Employing a patented new technology called Scanimation, each page is a marvel that brings animals, along with one shining star, to life with art that literally moves. It's impossible not to flip the page, and flip it again, and again, and again. A first book of motion for kids, it shows a horse in full gallop and a turtle swimming up the page. A dog runs, a cat springs, an eagle soars, and a butterfly flutters. Created by Rufus Butler Seder, an inventor, artist, and filmmaker fascinated by antique optical toys, Scanimation is a state-of-the-art six-phase animation process that combines the "persistence of vision" principle with a striped acetate overlay to give the illusion of movement. It harkens back to the old magical days of the kinetoscope, and the effect is astonishing, like a Muybridge photo series springing into action--or, in terms kids can relate to, like a video without a screen. Complementing the art is a delightful rhyming text full of simple questions and fun, nonsense replies: Can you gallop like a horse? giddyup-a-loo Can you strut like a rooster? cock-a-doodle-doo Every child who opens the book will be amazed--and so will every parent.Binding Type: Hardcover

Hamilton costume coat!!
Size: Large, Color: Blue, Size: Large, Color: Blue
Not made very well, polyester build and not breathable, but it is a cheap, last-minute hamilton costume!! And was very successful to fit the role and looked pretty great- even kept us warm on halloween night and pockets to hold drinks!

Great fit & light weight
Size: Large, Color: Green, Size: Large, Color: Green
I was a little worried this wasn’t going to fit my husband. It looked huge. We ordered a size large, he’s typically a medium fit but he has a broad chest/ shoulders. I’m pleased to say that it was a great fit. I steamed it to release the wrinkles without any issues. Exactly as pictured, nice and light weight. Would definitely recommend.

It looks ok??
Size: XX-Large, Color: Black
This is not much of a jacket. It's relatively thin and doesn't block a breeze... That being said, the fit is accurate with the size chart. It's not very expensive, but feels like it should be about half this price
