you should see my "rare" Coleman stuff - I have a rare Coleman refrigerator that was manufactured by Black and Decker (just peel up the Coleman table and there is the Black and Decker logo!) :D

That's different for sure, perfect for that Maynard G Krebs themed trailer....however I can't imagine anything more annoying than someone beating a bongo at a campfire....kinda like that episode of Leave it to Beaver with Eddie Haskel playing them up at the lake. :lol: Doug

I wasn't supposed to mention this, but it's the perfect time to let the cat out of the bag: IRG 4's gonna have a Gong Show: T&TTT's Got Talent!

:R We bought them from Maynard G Krebs. We actually did it to see if anyone at the "Midwest Vintage Trailer Rally" would notice. We nestled them in amongst the Coleman lanterns and stove. We were surprised how many people thought they were real. :shock: Maybe we can quit looking for a tuba for our picnic table when we go camping and just put out the bongo's to scare people away. Someone by the '51 Spartan was playing an accordian late last night, or should I say trying to play the accordian! Sure glad I brought the iPod and headphones!
