The history of this revolutionary material spans three centuries (see Celluloid - A Collector's Reference and Value Guide, Collector Books, 1999, by Keith Lauer and Julie Robinson). It was developed during the 1870s as an imitation for dwindling supplies of expensive natural materials and, within a short time, found its way into the lives of consumers all over the vvorld through a wide variety of useful and ornamental goods. By the 1890s, celluloid had become an everyday part of living for most Americans.
