    Description

    D.B. Smith & Company
    BLIZZARD Continuous Sprayer
    Great Condition
    Some minor dings and dents. a couple scratches.
    Wood handle is in great shape with original black paint/stain.
    Label
    (maker's sticker)
    has fallen-apart or been absorbed as a stain on the brass tube
    Not rinsed recently, washed (ever?) or polished (ever).
    Wiped off regularly back in the day, appears to have been a bit aggressive on the bottom
    Solder-joint at brass tube to can-support is tight.
    Would be a great decoration or novelty item.
    some corrosion in the tank
    the pickup tube is corroded-off and it's gone (except for the short part in the photos.)
    Tank unscrews and re-mounts nicely.
    Nozzle tip is fairly clean, straight spray is clear, "up-spray" is clogged.
    I don't expect that the seal is any good, but the sprayer might be able to be used.
    If you really wanted to get down and dirty and make this a working sprayer (I highly doubt you'll want to)
    Has been in a cabinet in our shed for at least 35 years (went in there when my uncle moved to town)
    was used fairly regular up til then, but hasn't been used even once since.
    Ships quickly USPS Priority Mail
    Thanks for Looking
