==AND STILL YET EVEN MORE Incredibly Amusing Pictures ( best part of this wiki )==
No relation to Raptures 'The Sinker'. Jeremiah Fink had to get Sea Slugs somehow ( though stealing them all through a Tear to Rapture might've been MUCH MUCH easier ).    Steam Punk Crafters make some very impressive things.
-
I think this was originally a WW1 (Recruitment) propaganda poster, castigating 'Stay at Homes' - reminding that other men were fighting for their country ...
Ryan would recruit from the Citizenry to defend Rapture ( and probably NOT 'splice them up', as sufficient weapons and tactics were available to do the job AND he didn't need MORE violently insane people in Rapture ).

Fontaine must've drank a bit too much of Sander Cohen's Absinthe ( Elizabeth too ? ) to come up with THIS.
Maybe this model was what he Only Thought Fontaine's looked like ( and some builders took HIM 'for a ride' ) -- as the Floor Layout of everywhere we go in the place makes it out as a rather squat sprawling building.
-
 
And this 'Doctor' guy showed up and simply shrugged and shot Comstock in the head with a Luger, and then sent the Luteces ( the real cause of the whole mess into the 
Endless Gilligan's Island Theme Playing Universe - a Fate worse than Oblivion ).

Needless to say, few people fell for his ridiculous hair-brained proposal. The People Of Chicago later did not want that 'Flying Fustercluck' to hover over their city..
Hallucinogens 'cooked up' by Rosalind turned out to be a great gimmick for the scam to get people to give Comstock lots of money.

-
That is a huge bottle ( must've been the 'large economy size' ). Jamming a mattress needle into your arm must've been a big turnoff for some people ( which might've been a reason that the Pep-bars and EVE Gum sold so well ).
-
"Bounty Of The Sea" day was a holiday in Rapture where people gave each other gifts ( the commercial aspects of Christmas would be missed otherwise ).
-
Early game Prop - to prove that Columbia (and America) are full of evil racists and bigots. This was before they changed the game to 'prove' that Columbia (and America) was all full of evil Religious crazies and cultists and Bigots and economic exploiters.
What I don't understand is : If these WASPWASP - White Anglo Saxon Protestant racist/bigots didn't like immigrants/minorities/lower-class people, then WHY even need this - Just have a sign : "No Blacks, Dogs or Irish need Apply" for applicants to populate their New Eden/Ark.
-
Being Andrew Ryan's Plumber had certain Perks - Handy for McDonagh during the chase-scene get-aways from the fireball-hurling FREAKS ...
I could imagine a Big Daddy riding one of these around ...
-
Back then, there was a thing called 'style' ...
OMG !!! Splicers on Motor Cycles !!!
-
Vector (line) drawing was the early method of graphics using the XY sweep of the electron gun to make lines, dots and symbols ( Note - the dwell spots at the end of the letter line segments ). The aspect ratio is a bit odd. Usually, displays like this were round or square.
-
One of those futuristic appliances that the technology existed to create in Rapture. ( were seen mentioned in 1960's media in our Real World ).
-
-
Lots of potential in The MMORPG to have many more Art Deco props like this light stand.
-
Sidewalk Tree Planting Protectors. We can have Art Deco Manhole Covers ...
Now THAT'S class ...
-
Columbia wasn't the only place where technical advancements were going on.
After seeing Columbia at the Exposition a WHOLE LOT of brilliant people were given ideas and clues about what was possible - Columbia would soon be left in the dust.
-
Langford's Institute. After booby-trapping the whole area and activating the Lazarus thingee and slaughtering the Waves of Splicers (on Hard mode), this was 'the tally'.
-
Make it Stainless Steel and add some red/green goop and it could be part of the raw ADAM processor inside a Gatherers Garden machine ( Note - the Plasmids/Tonics were prepackaged from a central lab-production site and NOT created within the machines themselves ).
-
Lots of potential for the MMORPG. Maybe with the linear structure 'Streets', there will be more building shape opportunities than just flat facades.
Huge numbers of Art Deco architecture were in Residential houses and apartment buildings.
-
-
DO these people look like they are 'on something' ? It has been noted that they are all looking off into a different point in space.
-

-
-
A actual passenger room from the Hindenburg. Lightweight materials, and cramped quarters ( many ocean liners had similar ) for something that actually had to 'float'.
-
I can't wait for RETRO to be 'IN" again ...
A REAL Phone from 1895. Note the crank. Style is 'Eiffel Tower' ...
( Hmmm, Phones like this with their handy small generators would be perfect for Comstock's Police to use to torture confessions out of suspects - TELL US WHERE THE FALSE SHEPHERD IS ... Rrrrrrr *crackle* Zzzzzzzzzz... Aaaaahhhhhhh !!!! -- WHERE IS HE ? Rrrrrrr .... )
-
The Russians were way ahead of Fink, and little could beat its 'Lassie' level of intelligence.
-
Splicer Mask ? You're doing it Wrong.
