Many of us grew up with it as Kids: Maxwell Smart and his never-quite-real bag of spy gadgets and espionage gear.
On February 17, 2002, the prop shoe phone used by agent Maxwell Smart was included in a display entitled “Spies: Secrets from the CIA, KGB, and Hollywood,” a collection of real and fictional spy gear that exhibited at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California.
Flinders University in South Australia are currently researching medical applications for “Shoe Phone” technology after being inspired by the show.
Fox News ran a thing a little while back about how many of Maxwell Smarts Spy Gear were actually real. Here is a quick list of some of the most funny Gadgets that turned out to really work… well, mostly.
