Myth: Was a battery able to be used for certain tasks in ancient times? Results: Plausible.

Reference: In the episode "Cooling a Six-Pack," (2004, Ep. 36) the Build Team recreated the Baghdad Battery and tested to see if they were used for electroplating, pain relief, or invoking a religious experience.

Inventory Description: This lot consists of one blueprint signed by Adam Savage and Kari Byron signed by Adam Savage and Kari Byron with one MythBusters Team signed poster print. Blueprint exhibits some small rips on the edges, but remains in good condition.

For certain lots in the auction, including this one, a single photo has been used to represent the signed poster in multiple different auction lots that are extremely similar. The poster in this lot is nearly identical to the one pictured, though it may have minor differences in wear to the one photographed. All specific lots are available for in-person viewing at Propstore's offices by appointment.
