He invented special effects.
For that we all owe him our gratitude.
Happy birthday, Georges Méliès.

By the 1840s, we could create a permanent electric spark between 2 conductive #elements slightly separated from each other.
At the time, the #electriccurrent was supplied by a series of #Bunsen batteries, sometimes up to 40 or 50 cells (illustration shows 12 cells).
