Well, the time machine isn't yet perfected for travel.
But, its auxiliary probe HAS been perfected to purloin objects from the past. When you set something down and can't find it a minute later . . . you've probably been probed from the future. Predictably, that action violates temporal laws and after a few minutes the object returns to its time, a short distance from where it was picked up—usually the last place you'd ever think to look for it.
Here it has picked up (with barely enough time to holo-scan) a lady's toiletry travel case from 1916, gorgeously decorated by Gwen White.

My name is Thom Buchanan.
I'm an artist and photographer.
People are my favorite subjects to portray in art and photos. My wife (and studio partner) has called that my 'people skills', as I've been passionately creating portrait studies for many years.
I refer to myself as a pictorialist, a combination of image-making and journalist. Images are my life.
