Abstract
En la Exposición Universal de Barcelona de 1888, Juan Cantó presentó en España por primera vez una máquina de fotografía automática precedente del fotomatón. Desde entonces hasta 1929, fecha en la que se abre el primer estudio Photomaton y se instalan los primeros aparatos Fotodin, se patentaron en España diferentes modelos de máquinas automáticas de retratar. El objeto de este trabajo es realizar un estudio histórico sobre los orígenes del fotomatón y sus antecedentes a través de las patentes de invención e introducción de aparatos de fotografía automáticas solicitadas, concedidas y puestas en práctica entre 1888 y 1929, y de las empresas pioneras en la explotación, venta y alquiler de estos dispositivos.
In the 1888 Barcelona Universal Exposition, Juan Cantó showed, for the first time in Spain, his automatic photography machine, a precedent of the photobooth. Since the until 1929, the date on which the first Photomaton studio was open and the first Fotodin devices were installed, different models of automatic photography machines were patented in Spain. This study reviews the history of the early years of the booth and its antecedents through patents of automatic photography apparatus between 1888 and 1929, and the pioneering companies in the exploitation, sale and rental of these devices.
