UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was priced at $1600.

The price on this looks good.  I had to do a double take on the “dashboard is in great condition”, because I spotted the wooden instrument panel.  I think what Marty means is the dash is in very good shape, but this needs a new gauge panel to look correct.

Robin Hood Popcorn

I like reading books about the history of odd subjects.  Whether gum, beer , milk or salt, if it is a history about something food related, I want to read it.   A few years ago I read a fun little book about the history of popcorn called Popped Culture: A Social History of Popcorn in America by Andrew Smith.  I was surprised to learn how many different kinds of popcorn there are, having grown up on the basic non-branded yellow variety.  So, when I spotted this article about popcorn trailers that were pulled by Willys Wagons, I thought it was interesting.  Below you can see the trailers built by Clyde Gould, see one of two wagons that pulled them, and learn about his attempt to create a popcorn business.  Unfortunately, the article doesn’t indicate how successful he was or what happened to the trailers.

UPDATE:  **Status Unknown** Was listed at $7000

(06/29/2012) This looks good.  I can’t tell if the passenger side is a little discolored or if it is just the light and a reflection.
