Hoarder or Boy Scout motto “Be Prepared “?

Yesterday, I needed to create a very short extension cord.  I purchased this sometime between 1972 and June 1976. This little jewel has traveled in my small stash of electrical parts since then, with multiple moves between Ventura, the Fresno area, and Yosemite National Park.  It was just patiently waiting for me through careers, marriage-divorce, another marriage, kids raised, blah, blah, retirement.  


The Ventura store of Neiman-Reed’s Lumber City was a great place to work, and I got an employee discount when I purchased it at this outrageous price.  It’s just what I needed for this little project, and the price was right!
