Attending to the yellowing typescripts of his religious screeds as if they were medieval incunabula, Roberts locates, for example, the substitution of his own neologism "iconoscope" (a frozen tableau) for Edison's "kinetoscope," a word still faintly visible under the artist's typed correction. The world union catalog of incunabula was started in the 1920s and stopped because of World War II; was an attempt to renew the work in the 1950s did not advance further.
