Modern Mechanix Round-UP

Today on Modern Mechanix we look at a 1929 round up of nutty patents including these somewhat impractical parachute pants, a bicycle built to be ridden by eleven blind men, an air purifier that looks like it would cause deafness, an aerial camera that can take pictures covering over 200 miles, a bizarre ad that has a family of four literally riding the RCA research building across the sky and the origin of windshield wiper fluid sprayers. We also learned all about the birth of Technicolor in a 1930 Modern Mechanix article which makes color film processing look like quite a pain in the ass.
