My eyes! My eyes! They burn! I don't think I have ever seen a photo of a carrier with an outhouse in the background on this forum.

At our museum we have an outhouse with an upside down carier in the background, would that qualify instead?

Cheers

Hey Jordan, don't aplogize. This thread has had 568 views between the 23rd and today. I think you and the other guys who have contributed to it have made it more entertaining and more viewed. Thats like free advertising.

I just had a nice chat with Bob Estabrooks and learned that the carrier was sold.

Should one come up like this one I would be very interested.

Cheers,

I didn't think it would last very long. With some of the prices realized on ebay in recent years, this one appeared to be a bargain.
