I remember when I first saw this "thing". I was visiting an old friend in his laboratory whom I had not seen in quite some time. Rumors that my old friend Dr. Tobias Horatio Dimbleby's mind has become unhinged and he is quite mad now prompted me to discover the welfare of my friend and colleague.
After a very warm greeting, he was excited to show me around his lab and show off his various experiments and inventions. I noticed this table with the dirty cover draped over a form in a dark corner and was immediately appalled at what might lie under the covering. Near it was a cart with four large gallon-sized glass bottles filled with different types of foul looking liquid and black rubber tubes trailing from their openings and to the table of the covered form. The tubes went underneath the draping. Strewn about the floor was brass pipes, cogs, riveted plating, nuts and bolts. I listened and followed the brilliant scientist all around his lab, waiting for him to take me to that darkened corner, but he never did.
I was about to ask him about it when a faint sound came from that direction and we both turned just in time to see a slight movement from under the covering. Dr. Dimbleby suddenly had an insane leer upon his face and he smiled in a most uncomfortable way. He grabbed my arm and steered me from his laboratory with an offer of tea.
That glimpse of a human-like form underneath the stained cover haunts me to this day. Six months later I heard Dr. Dimbleby was completely mad and no one went near his home. Years later he disappeared.

Featuring a tarnished and dirty brass frame and I don't even want to know what the dirt and stains on the covering are! Add this item to your lab and keep your visitors wondering what sort of creature or insane experiment you are working on now!
