Yep the Feuerhand ones were the ones used on the road building sites.

Hey Hover-Lover, that is a great find. It looks like a pre 1936 Little Wizard and it looks intact except the globe. Ya gonna restore it? Well, wouldn't ya know the staff said it had to go through "processing" then it would go into some sort of "collectibles" section. Said it would probably be for sale by Tuesday ... hopefully nobody else wants it but I will be there looking for it. You woulda thought they would let me slip 'em a $10 and go with it but no such luck. Will update !

I bet it will be there for you. 99.9% of people will look at it and go, what a piece of junk lol. They don't see the beauty lying underneath. Good luck and look forward to the update!
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Well, my wife checked the "collectibles" section yesterday and it either hasn't made it through whatever processes a thrift store puts their donations through ..... OR .... another trapperman member was inspired by your posts and snatched that thing up !!!! Will check back tomorrow ... fingers crossed !
