No need to pull the rope, just wind it up and then fold that top over. I bought a used one when I was a kid mowing lots of yards. It spent more time in the shop getting the winder repaired than it did mowing. So maybe not 'more', but at least four or five times the one summer I used it. Thinking back, it might not have even been the entire summer.

Good for holding coins, but when you don't have any money you can use it to make a great pair of lips!

What are those?

What are those?

Those are the plastic hair piks that your grandma used to use to holder her hair curlers in with, back in the day.
50's, 60 and into the early 70's

The squeeze coin purse.
I remember wanting one of those so bad when I was a kid. I thought those were the coolest thing ever when I saw my grampa reach into his pocket to fetch his, and pull a few coins out and lay them on the store counter.

I had no idea what it was or where to get one. My Grampa handed me a brand new one, one day.
On the front side of it, it said Dal's Garage, in crisp white lettering. That was the one man service station in the little river town they lived in here. I never seen anyone working on anything when I rode my bike past but there was always old men including Dal setting out front talking, sitting in steel lawn chairs.
