Shameless Promotion of a Product: Part XVII: 1950s Life Aquatic Scuba Oxygen Tank

Life Aquatic

Keeping up with the yellow color palette theme today, I found this amazing vintage 1950s oxygen tank on Modern50. This is industrial design at its finest, in my humble opinion. Check out those dials, the distressed tank, the hint of red on the wheel, I could go on and on. It also looks like it could take flight at any moment. From reading the description on the website, it appears to be functioning. I just wish I could justify spending over 1,000 dollars on an aquatic tank I'll never personally use out in the field... help me out Seu Jorge.

Wow. That site has some cool and expensive stuff. I don't know if I would pay $500.00 for sawhorses even if they are vintage and from the Hamptons. But if you are looking for a equestrian steeplechase lap signal or a Corky the Clown water ski, this is the site to visit.
