[Skrimpy]

lololololol roflmao!!!! Very nice. Go put it on ebay. I would love to see what you get for it. How much more could you make if you put individually wrapped condoms in it? Would it be worth more?

What even funnier is these were reusable condoms, EEWWwww, and at $.50 not cheap back then, How did they get behind the school house is my question?? And i wonder what the 12 quage shotgun shell I dug a foot away was all about, So many questions. This is my most comical find yet, and I have learned so much about, Uhhh, well I've learned alot.

Great relic. Haven't found any good relics that old yet, kinda strange in a historic area like I am in. But then again perhaps I just ain't holding the Bounty Hunter right

Have you heard the story of the farmers daughter, that may explain the shotgun shell. You should display them together.

Maybe Agnes was the school marm.

Maybe one of 'em failed, thus a shotgun wedding. :P

Reusable? Hey Tex, did ya sterilize the tin? LOL.

Found this one in Salisbury NC two weeks ago. Mine are selected and TESTED, I guess that is why they are doubled in price. Or they could just be not as old HMMM!
