Roto-Hoe - Getting dirty and shirty.

It's high summer, people, and the weeds are going coo-coo for Cocoa Puffs. Isn't it nice to know that the troglodytes back in 1955 had the same problem? Not really. Kind of boring, really. Anyway, if you were slightly posh, you could have bought yourself a Roto-Hoe to tear the shit out of your weedy yard, to teach it a lesson. Stay tuned for a stupid shirt that no one will buy!



The happy Roto-Hoer in this ad has just handed over $134 in 1955 money for the privilege of ownership. What's that come out to in current FutureBucks? Just over $1200. Can you pay that much for a rototiller today? Sure you can, but it probably won't be made domestically, of course. And, it won't have a cool exposed drive belt, making easy for you to lose a finger. It's funny that "Many experimental models were tried from 1936 to 1947", but during all that woodshedding, nobody bothered to say "How about we put a cage around that belt, whirring around at toddler height?". That would have cost an extra two dollars, of course, and dollars don't grow on trees, the way fingers do.

Anyway, this dirty girl can be your own special Roto-Hoe with our stupid new shirt! The print can be had in pink, orange, or kind of a turquoise cyan color, on your choice of shirt color, something like this. Just imagine what your life could be like if you had one!

Yep, you'd have to really like yard work to wear a shirt like this. Or, just be sort of weird. If you're kinda weird, or a yardworkhorse, here's a link to the designs in our Spreadshirt shop. You're welcome, for some reason!
