[AT] ).T. - Wanted - double thumbed corn shucker gloves & potato digger

[rlgoss at twc.com]

Hey, Herb.  Those gloves may have been made by Boss Manufacturing Company.  They made the hooks, and are the largest and oldest glove manufacturers.  I found nothing on their website, but send them an email and see what happens.

Dad always raised approx 100 acres of corn and hand shucked it himself, except for two years when he experienced health issues; I have used and worn out several pair back in the mid late 40’s.  Also need a potato digger (operational or readily repairable) for the approx 600 lbs of sweet potatoes we normally raise, plus Barbara wants more red potatoes, plus I would like to get rid of the potato size rocks in our large vegetable garden. I have been reluctant to use a nice tractor tiller because of these rocks. Herb(GA)
