🎬 Relive the Magic of Early Cinema in Wood & Motion

Step back to the golden age of silent films with the Vitascope by ROKR — a beautifully crafted 3D wooden puzzle that isn’t just a display piece, but a working vintage projector. Perfect for film lovers, hobbyists, and anyone who appreciates nostalgia, mechanics, and design in one package.

🔧 Hand-Crank Power – Turn the side handle to drive the internal gears, motor, and film mechanism. Totally mechanical.
📽️ Silent Film Included – Comes with a 58-frame clip from Charlie Chaplin’s Modern Times, so you can experience classic cinema at home.
