Abstract
A display device having much fewer drive electrodes than expected by the number of pixels is formed by including a plurality of pixel members, an endless guide holding the plurality of pixel members movably therein, a pixel member mover disposed at a part of the guide for moving the pixel members along the guide, and a pixel member color changer disposed at a part of the guide for causing a color change of individual pixel members. The colors of respective pixel members are changed by the pixel member color changer while the respective pixel members are moved by the pixel member mover to effect a display.
