| Description: | "Would you believe it? Queer things the World over. No. 12." C/U of a print of the Grand Archduke of Austria who had a writing machine invented for him 150 years ago. The machine, seen in Austria, consists of complicated machinery contained in a globe that writes words with a quill pen. Several shots show how it all works by clockwork. (Looks like it would be easier to just write it yourself.) | |
