Back in the earlier years of doll making, many dolls were made from celluloid Celluloid proved to be a very lightweight material, although the surface was hard and firm to the touch Celluloid did have one major drawback, however, as it was also highly flammable

You can use celluloid to refer to films and the cinema. King's works seem to lack something on celluloid. Name for the first synthetic plastic material, developed in 1869. Made of a colloid of cellulose nitrate (nitrocellulose) plasticized with camphor, it is tough, cheap to produce, and resistant to water, oils, and dilute acids. It found a great variety of uses in combs, films, toys, and many other mass-produced consumer goods. Though it has been replaced in many uses by nonflammable synthetic polymers (originally cellulose acetate and Bakelite, then a host of others), it is still manufactured and used
One of the earliest plastics, celluloid is derived from cellulose, a natural plant fiber, and was first synthesized around 1870 Items commonly found today include hair combs, dresser articles Celluloid items for wear were often set with pave rhinestones Celluloid is flammable and deteriorates easily if exposed to moisture, so care should be taken in its use and storage
a medium that disseminates moving pictures; "theater pieces transferred to celluloid"; "this story would be good cinema"; "film coverage of sporting events"
