No. 519 by John Badger & The Moustache Riders of Doom

Cut No. 519 represents the device used for testing the durability and longevity of the foot. A represents the new improved rubber foot; B represents the leg to which the foot is permanently attached; C represents the floor; D represents a lever, operated by power; W represents the weight of 160 pounds, which is considered more than equivalent to the weight of the average laboring man. When power is applied the level moves horizontally, forcing the leg forward and backward, first with the weight of 160 pounds applied to the ball of the foot and then with the weight of 160 pounds applied to the heel of the foot. This device was put into operation and permitted to run one thousand hours.
