Hand and sucker

| View Cart ⇗ | Info

“The ‘sucker’ consists of a circular piece of thick leather with a string attached to its middle. Being soaked thoroughly in water, it is firmly pressed upon a flat stone to drive out all air from between the leather and the stone. Unless the stone is too heavy, it may be lifted by the string.” — Avery, 1895
