Plush Pouch

Direct from the U.S. Army, this desert-tan nylon pouch was made to hold a 2-qt non-sloshing bladder canteen. So authentic that it probably will have the original stenciling and user's name on it. Has a plastic latch, belt clips, an adjustable and detachable 42" shoulder strap. The cushy fake-fur lining insulates it in the winter. Wet the lining for a cooling effect in hot weather. Measures 8-1/4" x 7" x 3" with a little 3" x 2-1/4" pocket on the front. (Water purification tablets?) Don't carry water? It'd make a nice, warm traveling gerbil habitat. (There's even a drain hole in the bottom.)

Drinking Glasses

Warning!  WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.

Literally. These clear, plastic-tubing faux-specs start in your soda, wrap around your ears and eyes, sit on your nose and end up in your mouth. You slurp and your drink zips around your face and into your yap. The last word in sophisticated beverage consumption. Made of 1/8" and 1/4" tubing, the slurp-parts detach for when you're not drinking. Some folks here believe we got this, despite the fact that it's in perfect working order, because the package says "It's suck-sational!"

You Can Count On Me

That's what I'm made for. I'm a gray-plastic, 3-digit mechanical counter that measures 1-1/2" x 1-1/8" x 7/8". My 9/16" long lever kicks my counter up one digit at a time, and my 1" dia toothed side-wheel resets me. I'm a really nice device from the pre-LED world!

DRINKING BIRD

Warning!  WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.

A rather dumb looking 6" bird with a felt covered head and has plastic feet. Worse, he cannot get his fill of water. You buy the drinks. Fluid inside condenses from the evaporative cooling of the water off the bird's beak, making it top heavy and dunking it back into the water. The condensate rejoins the liquid pool in the bird's bulb, and he tips up again. Process continues indefinitely. It works, but it's not any more than moderately well made, and not any more than moderately priced. WARNING! The fluid and dye inside the bird can permanently stain, and the bird's glass body can easily be broken. Children are fascinated by the bobbing bird, and the educational possibilities are great. But they should watch it, not fondle it!!

Asymmetrical Swedish Gasbag

Our first olive-drab canvas gas mask bag from the Swedish military is 10" wide. One corner is approx 3" wide x 13" tall, tapering to no width x 12" (think triangle) at the other. Has a hasp and (2) snap closures, a 48" long adjustable clip-on strap, inside pockets that would hold a Boysenberry, pens, and a cell phone nicely, a snap-strap that could hold it on a bike, and the slight fragrance of a military warehouse that will dissipate in the sun and fresh air. Made to hang horizontally, like most gas mask bags, with the opening on the side and the hasp in the front. Nice general-purpose alternative to a messenger's bag for 1/5 the price.

Small Radioactive Animal Hat

Well, okay, it's a radio inside a miniature football helmet. You pick the Carolina Panthers, Jacksonsville Jaguars, or Seattle Seahawks. In the 2" x 2-3/4" helmet is a small AM-FM radio that runs on (2) button-cell batteries that are included, along with earbuds and a 16" neck-strap. Licensed by the NFL. Why so cheap? Because the batteries may be bad, and because we're in Chicago and we'd like to get these out of here before someone finds out.

Military Mystery Bag

Could very well be for a gas mask, but that's just a guess, and we know not from whose military. Interesting, though, and rubberized for your protection. It's olive drab, 9-1/2" x 11" x 4", with hook-and-loop belt fasteners. The belt fasteners are oriented so that there's an 8" x 10" snap-flap pocket on the front, a fold-over closure for the bag itself on one short side with a hook-and-loop catch against the body, and a 4" x 6" pocket with hook-and-loop closure on the opposite short side. Good deal if you need to keep stuff dry. Even better after a few hours in the sun and a good spray with a fabric freshener.

Magical Mystery Wallet

Yes, boys and girls, just as seen on TV, but at a tiny fraction of the price. These are the wallets carried by French waiters, with the magical tapes inside. Drop cash or receipts inside, open it up and they're held firmly by the tapes. Open the other side, and they're held by other tapes on the other side! Repeat as necessary until you figure it out. You sort of have to see it. Ours is black leatherette with (4) outside pockets (2 on each side) for multiple credit or business cards. Measures 4-3/8" x 3" x quite thin.

Laser Pointer Par Excellence!

Da Mare could use this to point out cracks in the infrastructure at Wrigley Field. You, having a forgiving nature, will resist the urge to point out cracks in da mayor's infrastructure. You will, of course, use it to point out chimney cracks to the tuck-pointer, a cracked limb to the tree-trimmer, and the crack in your profit picture during a slide presentation. You can do all that and much, much more with the bright light from this chrome-plated, 5mW green laser pointer. It's an unbelievable tool. If you need a laser pointer that seems to go on forever and is so strong that you can actually see the beam in the dark, it will be the best low-cost investment you ever made. Or the coolest high-end toy. The 532nm Class IIIa light is 5-5/8" long x 1/2" dia, with (2) "AAA" batteries (included), a momentary-on switch, pocket clip, and padded wooden carrying case. An absolute necessity for construction, surveying, warehousing, inspection and other large sites. And for playing in the dark.

It's Missing The Mix

The box says it's a crème brûlée kit, but we've tossed the expired crème, and kept the best part of the kit -- (4) 4-1/4" dia ramekins, and the small, self-standing propane torch that's worth the price all by itself. Make your own crème, charge up the butane torch, and you're a French-dessert-servin', sugar-meltin' fool. Please note the catalog mentions propane. It is a butane torch that requires a refill with a standard butane refill can available at most drug stores.
