I have an old Handy Hank Tobacco primer that I am looking for information on. Does any know what years these could have been made? I am thinking 50s or 60s. I am going to have it in a local parade and would like to have more info on it.
 
It's a little machine which you strap to your arm. when you can't get out of bed in the morning, because of excess ingestion of nicotine,you hit the red button and it injects a substance into your arm which gets you going until the next cigarette.
 

Around here its how Young folks made good money in the summer,,, its how you learned to get along with black folks that you worked like a dog with...

Back then do hard labor are do with out,,, what a concept,,, work hard to keep up with the Jone's,,, pay as you go.

All baccer was handled by hand in my time so dunno about a machine to do the tast.
 
Once upon a time there was a lab rabbit that enjoyed the great view outside anytime the overhead door was open. He had a great desire to explore the scents that wafted into the lab, the fresh air and the smell of the green grass.

At noon one day the researcher left rather abruptly and left the overhead door open a few inches. The rabbits cage door was not properly latched so the rabbit bumped it and simply hopped out the door to explore.

Soon a wild rabbit called to the lab rabbit from outside the compound fence. The wild rabbit pointed out a hole in the fence and invited the lab rabbit to eat some of the fresh grass and to romp and play.

After about an hour the lab rabbit announced that it was time he was getting back to the lab. The wild rabbit just couldn't imagine that the lab rabbit wanted to go back and asked why.

The lab rabbit replied, "Because I really really need a cigarette."
 
Is this a mechanical cropper or one of those you rode on and cropped the tobacco by hand? I never used one though, we cropped on foot until 1999.
 
Doesn"t beat Herion, cocane, (or so I"m Told).other wise that mach you described, sounds like what I could use in the morning,or all day long.lol It would be benificial to have a jetison bed that throwes the sleeper up and to the floor. Lots of bruses and bumps. Maby not a good idea after all. Any other suggestions? lol
