Aren't artists supposed to appreciate the beauty of art and seek to preserve it rather than to destroy it? There is so much beauty in these machines they've chosen to mutilate. It's a shame it wasn't appreciated.

Maybe this Underwood was a rust bucket and this is an attempt to cover that. Hey, look! It´s been restored! (puts a 3-figure price tag on it).
