It’s a section of The New Universities Dictionary Illustrated, published by the World Syndicate Company (which sounds straight out of the X-Files). I found some of it amusingly quaint. Did you know that the emergency brake is for slowing the car down faster? (Excuse me, it’s “a device for a sudden slackening of speed.”) I didn’t! And apparently a “multiplex-cylinder engine” is worth calling out.
