    Automata from the late 1800s

    Hello,

    I was at SFO to pick up my wife and son and saw a random display of automata mostly from the late 1800s. I took pics of the machines and the cards describing them.

    Thought there might be some dolls/construct players who might find this interesting and inspiring: http://s221.photobucket.com/albums/d...view=slideshow

    Nice! This stuff is amazing... it really fascinates me.

    some time ago I googled something similar and found this:
    Maillardet's Automaton - it's awsome!

    Ok, how the bloody hell do I get Photobucket to pause the "slideshow" so I can read the captions?
