Things You Don't See Anymore Part 3

To answer the question posted above, the Tel Ray survived wars that many did not.
The same war as all wars. The same war that Jimi sang about in 1967, when he said something like:
Machine gun, tearin' my body all apart
Evil man make me kill you, evil man make you kill me
Evil man make me kill you, even though we're only...
Well, I pick up my axe and fight like a barber
But your bullets still knock me down to the ground
You know what I mean?
Your bullets keep knocking me down
I pick up my axe and fight like a barber now
The same terrible wars that are going on today.
Here is a photo of another survivor of wars that reminds me of my younger days.
The backside of my '63 B15:
While I do have better looking B15 cabinets, this is the one I like the most.
I am older than it is and I show more wear on the outside, but there is wear and damage inside me that does not show.
My rant for today is over. Rock on my brothers, and sisters.

Speaking of things you don't see anymore, I bought this in 1970. I still have it; it still works. Kasino model 252. 2x15/200W.
Oh, I'll bet. I'm old enough to remember having my feet x-rayed in a machine like that, likely in the second half of the 50's, in a shoe store in Eastern Canada. I remember being quite excited about having it done. Maybe less so now if tumors start growing between my toes...
I totally remember building tree forts that looked like the towers from Star Wars. We tried to make our bicycles look like the speeder bikes using tinfoil and cardboard. I don't think my mom was all too happy when we took off with the tinfoil.

Those candy cigarettes are still made. I just saw them in a store this week.
My God, will someone think of the children? Shocked, shocked, I say.
