One poster adorning a fence surrounding a barn yard, where a number of cows are grazing, shows the picture of a cow's head. As the curious crowd stands gazing at the poster one of the animals pokes its head through it, and makes it appear as if the poster had really come to life. The next shows a large poster advertising a brand of champagne, with a picture of a bottle standing out in bold relief. A man with a hose on the other side of the fence puts the crowd to rout when he pokes the nozzle through the picture and makes it appear that the bottle is in action. The last poster is one of Pathé Frères, showing a number of dancing girls. The crowd is dumbfounded when the objects in the picture come to life and dance a beautiful ballet.
