There used to be a balloon pump made that had a fake sliding handle and was full of spring snakes. Does anyone still make this?

Yes, Magic, Inc. used to sell the comedy snake balloon pumps. I bought mine probably back in 1973 or so, and I still use it! It had 3 large cloth-covered snakes in the all-metal pump with sliding wooden handle. It has seen hundreds & hundreds of shows. Basically, it's like a large "peanut brittle" joke can (with snakes inside, of course), that's painted bright orange, has a screw-on red lid with a small plastic tip for attaching the balloon, and a metal rod attached to the bottom on which a wooden handle slid up and down. As far as I know, these are no longer available.
However, I found these available now: Snake balloon pump from clownsupplies.com: http://www.clownsupplies.com/shopexd.asp?id=347 Another (similar) from Daytona Magic: http://www.daytonamagic.com/products/COMEDY-SNAKE-PUMP.html Hope this helps! TED |

Ted: Thanks for the links, but neither has the sliding handle/chrome body of the original Magic Inc one, which is what I'm looking for.
Pete: If you're serious about selling, give me an asking price, and if the thing looks good, we can probably reach an agreement. PM me. |

Hopefully in a couple of weeks I can get some finished up. Richard

To whom it may concern......
I PM'd my old friend, Brody, who initiated this thread, four years ago. When I punched the "send" button, I learned that he has been banned. I can't imagine why. If anyone knows how I may contact him, I would really appreciate a PM with the information.
