Pink Floyd-Themed Meat Slicer with Vinyl ‘Animals’ Discs Hits eBay for $34K

You can now buy a vintage Pink Floyd-themed meat-slicing machine.

The piece, a limited edition of one, features 100 pink vinyl copies of Pink Floyd’s 1977 album ‘Animals’ in place of sliced ham.

The artwork was commissioned by French artist Denis Defrancesco and built by La Bottega del Restauro, a company in Italy that specializes in rebuilding and refurbishing vintage Berkel meat slicers.

The slicer was inspired by the artist’s youthful encounters with a ham vendor he describes as a “goddess in a delicatessen.”

He said, “Her ham was white, pink, and blonde, soft, silky, and milky. The most voluptuous ham in the world. A thousand and one times have I devoured it, never have I been sated.”

The meat slicer is available on eBay for $34,000.
