  • Jay Walker's Library of "The History of Human Imagination"

Take a look at the library established by one of the greatest inventors (and quite adequately patented) with an unrestrictive inventive mind, Jay Walker (founder of Priceline.com and Walker Digital):

Overview of library:



Staircases designed on Escher’s famous staircase sketches where the glass panels form rails that interconnect profound discoveries and inventions as puzzles:



A 1970's Lie Detection Instrument Encased in a Samsonite Bag, Manufactured by Lafayette Instrument (Contains blood pressure cuff, and an ECG heart and respiratory monitor)



Gautier D'Agoty's Anatomical Masterpieces:





Lunar Module Surface Checklist that Astronauts Took with Them on the Apollo 16 Mission (With cryptic notes to check various parameters, switches, knobs, and dials):



A Huge Music Score (The guy's shoe-size included in the image is a 9) for Orchestras to Read:



Pictures of Animals Morphing to Humans:



Congressional Space Medal of Honor Given to Edward Higgins White (Died in a pre-launch test of the first mission to the moon):



An Export Soviet Periodic Table with Ampules Containing the Corresponding Elements (Even radioactive unstable elements such as Fermium):



Hope you like the tour!! :)
I want that humanimal morphing book!
This is awesome!!!!!

At the second picture, I wonder if you were walking down below, and you look up, would you be seeing through the glass as well? XD
This lie detector looks more like a seismograph... But very interesting tour :D
Thanks a lot
