    Description

    Shop smart with BlurryRobot!  This nifty paperweight is made of a bronze medal with a wonderful globe and lever design, embedded in acrylic. It was awarded to GE inventors at their Erie locomotive factory.  It's got a chip in one corner and a few smudges on the sides.
    The design was, of course, drawn from the legend of Archimedes, who said that given a lever long enough he could move the globe of the world.
