Porta-Potty on You-Know-Where
 
OK, yeah, its a Porta-Potty, I know, but it looks to be a 1960s version, & they ARE getting old, & it DOES work, as is typical for a Porta-Color. Not mine, no affiliation, just passing along info. Item #380086350269. We all tend to make fun of these little guys, but I kinda think most of us have soft spots for 'em, too...And in '66 or so, they were The Business...

We used to call 'em "porta junks"......But I do have a couple 70 models!!:D

Hey Sandy.. check your number.. I come up with "NEW womens plus size sexy black shirt tunic 2X 18/20W"

However, she isn't too bad looking...

Dammitt...Next to last # is a "6" instead of a "5"....Why does You-Know-Who HAVE to use such long numbers anyway ?

When I went looking with the wrong number I never found the set, but did find some interesting things (besides the shirt!)

While walking Yeller-dawg this morning I saw where one the neighbors up the hill had set three TV's out by the curb. Two of them were 80's era Sears junk, but one was a little 15" (?) 70's GE Portacolor in a walnut plastic cabinet. Real cute and appeared to be in great shape with the telescope and bowtie antennas still intact. Just my luck, by the time I got back, it (and the others) were gone. :tears:

And unfortunately they were most likely picked by some fellow who will
yank out the deflection yokes for copper recovery...

The Sears were likely good sets too..... Sanyo or Warwick built and last forever.

I think the Portacraps last so long since they utilize very simple designs.
