Зачем вам столько гуталина?

The гуталин obsession continues. I've found the full names of the "MM. Worms and Zwierchowski" who patented guttaline some time in the 1890s.

Eugene Worms and Alexandre-Sigismond Zwierzchowski worked together on a number of patents, like one here for "an improved bicycle." They also invented things independently and with other partners. I doubt they had much knowledge of Mongol footwear, though.
