Weird and Wonderful Gadgets That Never Made It

Whether we write or speak or do but look We are ever unapparent. What we are Cannot be transfused into word or book. Our soul from us is infinitely far. However much we give our thoughts the will To be our soul and gesture it abroad, Our hearts are incommunicable still. In what we show ourselves we are ignored. The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged By any skill of thought or trick of seeming. Unto our very selves we are abridged When we would utter to our thought our being. We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams, And each to each other dreams of others' dreams. Fernando Pessoa, 1918 |

Moustache protector FTW!
Quite a few designs we obviously see carry over today, from the devices featuring timers, to the lighted spectacles (surgical instruments). I'd love to get my hands on one of the turn crank peep shows!
