Good eye. I couldn't tell what the engraving was. Most scrimshaw I've seen has been done on ivory, bone or horns that were used to hold blackpowder. It is really some beautiful work.
#15 the eagle iron was not a design choice. The invented could not afford a mold. So the first speed were made in such a waffle iron. I had the Pre-Montreal cross country shoes with the real eagle iron souls.
#19 Since Acrylic Glass was only popular after second World War, I think it must have taken longer to reach ordinary users. So I guess possibly this was original in glass and later changed to acrylic.
#3 I believe they have it backwards. The hot air from the home is drawn up the chimney (heat rises) which draws cooler air from ground level, especially at night.

Sorry, typo... Waffle iron.
Montréal cross? I’m curious about the waffle iron.
