Hard to know what category to put this in. The picture below is Albert Robida's depiction of the revolution of 1953, as he imagined it in 1883. The object in the bottom right of the picture looks familiar.

Hee hee. I'd forgotten about that. There is a sequel, actually. "Albert's Return."

Apologies to non-British friends, who will not understand this reference . . .

Sapristi nabolas! So you did. I'd forgotten that. All I can offer in mitigation is that it's a from a different angle, and the door's open.
