Tube is free of dings, but has obvious wear signs…must have been riding under the seat or in the turtle deck for years. It does compress air, but there is a new air hose, but no nozzle to attach to the tube ...

Brass Hot Water Bottle

There are floor heaters, curtains to retain the heat, lap robes, foot warmers, and here is an opportunity to have a brass hot water bottle. When new, guaranteed to not leak for 5 years. Patented Nov. 26, 1912. Doesn't leak now...I cannot get the top off to put liquid in it, but seams sure look tight...
