Has anyone heard of Calkin's Wonder?  It was a water propelled device
with hundreds of moving, miniature figures representing historical and
biblical scenes.  Selba Z. Calkins created the device somtime before
1917 in Warnerville, NY.  After his death it was exhibited at
agricultural fairs and the 1938  "The World of Tomorrow" fair under a
new name- "The Busy World."

If you have any information about Calkin's Wonder please contact me.
Thank you.
