ABSTRACT:
A cylindrical three dimensional picture capable of being viewed through an angle of 360.degree. includes a cylinder surrounded by a 3D photograph, in turn surrounded by a flexible lenticular lens through which a film strip, subsequently developed into the photograph, is exposed and the subsequent photograph viewed, resulting in an image of a subject which appears to have been shrunken and enclosed within the cylinder. The film strip is exposed to sequential multiple images taken of a subject by a multiple imaging camera as the subject rotates 360.degree.. The film strip is exposed to the multiple images through a lenticular lens as the lens and film are rotated 360.degree. in a first embodiment, and is exposed to the multiple images linearly through a flat lenticular lens as the lens moves linearly across the projection beam of the multiple images in a third embodiment of the invention. In a second embodiment, the lens and film are mounted for rotation into a modified conventional viewing camera and exposed directly to images of the rotating subject as the subject is photographed. The lenticular lens and film strip may be separate layers or a unitary film strip having a lenticulated surface.
