Took a break from some lawn work this morning and hit some garage sales and found this stuff, a Delco Battery display (would you trust that little guy?)LOL. A Hercules auto body kit can with 1940's car on it and Montgomery Wards grease can(rough) no zip codes on the 2 cans and a shelton Versatool, not sure of age but looked old. Welcome any comments or info, enjoy!
