I wonder if this was a Pepsi fan, a Pepsi sponsored car, or an effort to get that sponsorship?

last of the hardware supply mail order catalog big posts.

I'll start this last installment, with the most fun thing in the 1400 page book

and then fet to the things I find interesting that I've never heard of before

and some pages of the huge variety of things inside that could be ordered

what the hell is a jelly cake?

an asparagus cooker? 

there was so MUCH ammo! 

and the illustrators were top notch! 

and a 44, with birdshot! 

even exploded views of rifles to order the individual parts

and before fishing line was made of plastic, it was silk, or Irish linen

that fish holder would be damn useful when trying to get a hook out of a mouth

before it was tarpaulin, it was a Paulin... how strange

and the variety of baseballs! 

notice the brand or model in the upper left corner, it's a "Motorbike"

I had no idea those spoke fasteners are called nipples

before they became "clip boards" they were "Board Clips"

and I began this with the most fun, and this ends with the most unreal... anyone could order dynamite. IT works really good for blasting stumps, my grandpa told me, but since he couldn't buy in anymore, in the mid 80s, he had to try using his tractor. It was not successful, but the damn stump was where he wanted to plant a small field for something deer love to eat. 

seen in a antique store, a toy I've never seen it before... made from 1960 to 1966

this cute kids lunchbox was designed by Al Konetzni - remember 1st grade when you simply enjoyed the little cool things like a cool lunch box?

this is one of the many reasons I enjoy Facebook pages, there are so many that focus on a single thing, like this on https://www.facebook.com/groups/169550661538899/  one Disney merch/collectibles from before 1967

Shankweiler's Drive-In, established in 1934, is the oldest operating drive-in theater in the world. It was just bought, and the new owners found this when cleaning up sheds and closets, the original source for sound for the drive-in when it was first built in the 1930s - pre-dating even speaker poles
