    Is there some truth in that" Danger" warning at the bottom of the can that could carry over to the one that everyone is referring the likeness to?

    Too blooming funny.
    I think that there are a few other guys my age or older who actually read though that New England Primer when we were young. I'm thinking that somewhere in grade school history we saw a copy or had a lesson about it.

    It takes a lot of spray cans to come up with his topics. Just kidding Danny. Uh, no I'm not.

  24. In the 50's Standard Brands stores had Black, White, Red Lead lacquer primer for $5 a gal. Great for "primer spots" when you shaved the hood, trunk, and door handles.
