Smokey Sam

OK ....

now here is an interesting one for me to work on ... I am trying to dig up pictures of the pieces and parts of the Smokey Sam system. I am looking for the launcher, carts, squibs, And the other types of items it used. There was a smoke canister for it as well.

Not sure anyone has one, or took pictures of these things, back when they were used, but this should be a fun pub to try and re-write.

I have a spent one out in the shed, but it's rainy and nasty and I'll get pics of it when it's nicer outside.

The button pusher launcher guy may have the original pics and can provide a better hands-on commentary. Maybe he'll see this and offer up a set of better quality photos.
