Interesting.

I've never seen anything like that come with any of "Jin's" engines before either.

NICE!

Day 34: Bing Butcher

(Attachment Link)




Bing Butcher looks a lot like Daniel Day-Lewis as Bill the Butcher
in "The Gangs of New York".

Both Charlie and the Hogg are great favorites with me!

Does the hand crank ever catch Charlie in the back of his left leg? If so ..... man, that has to hurt!

As an aside that has almost nothing to do with this, my district's County Supervisor, neighbor and friend (Dan Totheroh), is the grandson of Charlie Chaplin's most commonly used (essentially his personal) video photographer from about 1915 on into the 1940's working together on dozens of Charlie's films!

That would be starting out with hand cranked movie cameras in silent films!!!
