Dave Sieg has a Scanimate system still running after 45 years.
Scanimate
Based on the Animac development, Scanimate was a simplified system that took as input monochrome artwork that the operator could perform a sequence of transformations prior to display. The image could be coloured and tranparency effects added.
A full description can be found on Dave Sieg's site together with the ability to purchase a DVD of Scanimate output.
