    Hi CW Gang:

    I know EVERYONE WILL have their mind in the gutter on this one......lol. But it is NOT that.

    This was my Dad vintage Chrome PIFCO drink mixer. When you had company over and served them it was done in style back then -- as it was called ENTERTAINING back then. us kids used to want to stir everyone drinks as it was kinda neat!! Again this I have from my Childhood and was my Dad drink mixer.

    Here is one still in the Box:

    Great thing is, I threw in a Battery and the thing still works. Entertaining was an Art Form back in those days!!

    *** Also Posted the little Drunk Hobo Man Barware Decor from also my Dad's stuff ***

    Thanks for LOOKING // LOVING !!

      The first battery operated drink mixer I've ever seen! Never knew they existed, until now. Very cool!!!

      Necessity is the mother of invention. Looks like you have a very cool piece there. :)
    3. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 8 years ago
      I've seen at least 1, way back when.
    4. Caperkid, 8 years ago
      For a second i thought it was a gum massager lol very cool Rose.
    5. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 8 years ago
      Naughty, naughty caper ! LOL!!
    6. AzTom AzTom, 8 years ago
      I'm with jscott0363 on this one.
      My dad would have said that is the epitome of laziness. lol
    7. racer4four racer4four, 8 years ago
      Cool to look at, maybe useless to use. First bit of ice or thick liquid it probably stopped. Battery life? Two minutes to impress, two to hope, the last two pretending whilst making whizzing noises between your teeth.
      Please try it and report back....I may be totally wrong!!!
    8. DecoVoo DecoVoo, 8 years ago
      I don't understand...why might it be naughty? lol
    9. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 8 years ago
      I believe Caper is referring to a previous post of a finger gum massager. You can probably figure where that led.
    10. kyratango kyratango, 8 years ago
      Lol! Thought same...
      My gum massager is long fired ;-))

      Rose, need a cocktail now, can you lent your cool mixer ?
    11. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 8 years ago
