B. Kliban’s vast body of playful, surreal irreverent free-form work is well overdue for re-discovery. An innovator who significantly expanded the realm of cartooning, Kliban inspired a generation with his no-limits approach. His numerous books – Never Eat Anything Bigger Than Your Head, Whack Your Porcupine, Two Guys Fooling Around With the Moon among them – spread the Kliban vision far and wide, and put the term “Klibanesque” in the dictionary. His constructions – whether single-panel drawings (“Mental floss.”), multi-panel sequences (“Four Useless Motions”) or eight-panel image-poems (“Sheer Pottery”) – push fearlessly forward into unexplored territory. Welcome to his unique and compelling world.

Well no wonder nobody recognizes him.
They’ve simplified the Cake Pop makers considerably since his time.

I thought it was a Takoyaki maker, or the Sampo.

It’s all those things. It’s a universal food baller. You fill the bag at the top with your ingredient mix, and it makes balls out of it and fries them up. You can make cake pops and Munchkins and takoyaki and hush puppies and meatballs and breen.
It’s so crazy it just might work.
