I’ remember seeing those ads in the back of Popular mechanics magazine.They has squirrels, rattlesnakes and whatever you could trap & kill. I guess the taxidermy business sees a bonus in this as a side thing.
wonder what you stuff them with?
Am glad to have found you again. And being as I am needing something to do to add to my retirement, this could be it as I have too many of the critters here. Just wonder what the market demand is for squirrel lamps.

I do wish I could have given the new url before Coffee passed into the great unknown. I had the address just in case something happened (never really thought I’d need it).
I think this a wonderful retirement hobby, and I offer any and all of the squirrels from my backyard!!
Of course, if you believe stupid Dateline, we would skin the squirrel and eat its meat.
Nothing like a one hour destroy of Detroit featuring some guy who shoots raccoon for his dinner.

Christer,
I could never do it but still thought it a great idea!

Z&Me,
I couldn’t resist. This has been in my files a long time just waiting for the right posting.

Minicapt,
I will now say as flat as Kansas with a great deal more conviction. I will no longer say as flat as a pancake.

My Dear Hedley,
It’s looks multi-dimensional in the picture.

My Dear Hedley,
Then you stuff it even more!

Morpfy,
I do think it came from a magazine just like the ones you mentioned. They were the small ads squeezed on the sides of pages.

My Dear Hedley,
I missed part of the last Dateline, but it seems you’ve filled in the blanks. I find the idea of eating either of them revolting.
