A very modern design of stucture atop Moiwayama Observation Deck. Looks like a time machine that travels back and forth the time stream.
I found this in an antique shop in hamilton missouri. I gave $35 for it. It came with 1 left hand needle plate. it runs smooth and easy. works great on the treadle. It treadles effortlessly.
I just got done installing it in this treadle cab. that i got in Desmoines Ia this summer. I've been wanting a zig zag machine that looks old and this fits the ticket. I have another one but it is newer and was going to take a bit more modification to make it work in a treadle. this one didnt. This one looks a lot like the Nicchi BU zig zag machines I've seen.
share my bed, my faults, my head.

how technology has changed is that, before the war, people could tell how something worked by looking at it, and probably repair it themselves: bicycles, sewing machines, motorbikes, cars...
Now that is no longer the case, and some people feel alienated.
Canal Street & W Broadway
New York City, NY 10013
Canal Street is a major street in New York City, crossing lower Manhattan to join New Jersey in the west (via the Holland Tunnel I-78) to Brooklyn in the east (via the Manhattan Bridge). It forms the main spine of Chinatown, and separates it from Little Italy. It also forms the northern boundary of the Tribeca neighborhood and the southern boundary of SoHo. Canal Street stretches from its western terminus at West Street to its eastern end at Essex Street.
A Linotype machine in the Fort Witten Farm & Transport exhibits building. My wife and I joined family to tour the Historic Crab Orchard Museum in Tazewell, Virginia. The information sign about the machine reads,
"Linotype Machine
1886-1970s
Before computers were developed the Linotype was used to print all books and newspapers.
Southern Office Supply in Bluefield used this machine from 1940 to 1997 to print newspapers and books.
By 1453, Gutenberg had invented a printing press which required that each letter be hand-set. This method of setting type was used until another German (who moved to the US) developed the Linotype machine Ottmar Mergenthaler unveiled the Linotype in 1886 exploding the publishing world. Prior to the Linotype, composing words for one page of a newspaper required 25 to 35 hours of labor. The linotype reduced the time to 3 hours.
Mergenthaler created a comprehensive set of tiny brass molds. Up to 1,100 of these molds stood at attention in an overhead storage tray, waiting to be released at the command of the operator's keyboard, dropped to a conveyor belt, and assembled in order with several dozen similar molds in a single line. The line of molds was then placed in front of a pot of molten lead. At precisely the right moment, a plunger filled the molds with what immediately became a very hot "line of type" - a whole number of which lined up to form a column or "galley" of type.
A competent operator could produce in excess of two galleys of newspaper columns each hour. Before computers were developed the Linotype was used to print all books and newspapers."
