Cinema On Wheels - For only a few cents (five cents for a 50-ft film and 20 cents for 200-ft), one could peep through the slots on the specially-constructed white box with a red roof and view one's favourite legendary or cartoon characters in action - Robin Hood, Tarzan, Frankenstein, Popeye and Donald Duck. It was cheap and good entertainment.(1)

How did the miniature movie house work? It consisted of a projector and a movie box. The movie box was a simple structure with 16 square slots - four on each of the two sides and eight facing the screen - installed inside the box. The projector was wired to a generator and a battery. The red roof, apart from giving it a house appearance, also served as a storeroom for the reels.(1)

To watch the shows, just tell the vendor what you want and he would start the reels moving - at a fee, of course.(1)

The cinema on wheels disappeared from the streets in the 1970s.
