Animal powered sewing machine
I came across this book during a visit to The Emporda Technical Museum in Figueres. This is what the caption says:
Maquina de coser con motor animal
Unas semillas y el animalillo hara girar interrumpidamente la rueda de su maquina de coser.
Direct translation:
Sewing machine motor animal
Some seeds and uninterrupted creature will spin the wheel of his sewing machine.
I found this very amusing so I decided to do some more digging as I just had to know more about it.
It’s created by Frenchman, Jacques Carelman, a self-taught artist who is primarily known for Catalogue d’Objets introuvable (Impossible Object Catalogue).
