Story

Inventions

• divan : highly comfortable divan, full of late readers' letters
• giant shoe :shoe made for a shoes seller
• a giant aquarium: a network of pipes in which water flows
• scented aerosol: a revolutionary substance through which the light can not go
• machine to play cup-and-ball: device badly adjusted, so that it can hit the user
• gas generator: engine fed with fuel, but too much polluting
• miniature plane: this plane perfectly works, but the radio control turns out to control a Russian satellite

Background

This is the last album before Franquin's breakdown. Next publications will become rarer.
