    A worker who picks up scrap metal came across it …..

    That 6-12 repellant goes back farther then the 1960's . I rember using it as a kid and I am old enough to have shook hands with a man who fought in the civil war.

    I always take a look in those old tackle boxes. It’s like a trip thru a museum sometimes. But I didn’t notice any melted plastic worms in the trays. Gotta have that. Haha

    Looks just like boxes my dad used to have. Then they became mine.
