This item is a must have for the elitist roaster.

By the looks of it ... anyone who has an arm or two will have an interface for it.

I'd love to have that roaster.

I would put a propane burner under it with a super smooth control valve....man, that is my kind of thing right there.

Far cry from push button I know but what can I say, I'm a sucker for the art side.  8)

I actually wish there was a contemporary version in stainless steel.  I would buy one.

Well the price is not too outrageous.  The only thing that may be a deal breaker is the shipping from France.

I have this really bad problem of buying old / outdated stuff with the dream of refurbishing the items.
I'm very old school... most things from back in the day were just built better.
Mostly I do this with audio equipment... but I would definitely make an exception for this guy.

Too bad I never rarely get around to actually finishing these projects of mine.

That model of roaster was designed for the French army. It was intended to be disposable -- understandable to anyone who's seen the French leave a battlefield.    ;D

I prefer this gem;

Q: What would the French call a man killed defending his honor?
A: They wouldn't understand the question?

I don't feel like starting a new thread, because that would be a waste of data bytes, and you know those suckers don't grow on trees.

It's hard to believe that with so much detail that this thing actually was considered a child's toy... and if so, they apparently taught
children much better values back in the day than I realized.

I really do want one of these, though. Of course, I'd make someone else turn the crank while I watch and give instructions. Women have
no place making such suggestive hand motions!

So weird... I'm watching it for the first time right now.
I'm closing my blinds.

You have probably already missed it... it's within the first 15 minutes of the film, and is not incredibly audible.
I only caught it after turning the subtitles on. I enjoy movies most with captions because my generation is
going prematurely deaf... and dumb, but that's only by my trivial perception.
