Like a 1/4 scale Filter Queen, of course. Cast aluminum gold hammertone painted bottom. Stamped steel brown painted top & lid. Pressing the rubber lever with your thumb opens a 1/2" bottom hole of the interior chrystal chamber cone - yes, cone shaped. Being as how heavy most metal FQ accesories are it a safe bet the Filter Queens had strong wrists & forearms. :-) |

Simply lovely decal. I suspect this one has never been used considering the condition of the box. Pretty much the largest most substantial paradichlorobenzene gas sprayer I've seen, same goes for the FQ Air Polisher. These are hefty items. But they must have made a lot of these - who else has one? Color variations? Dave. |

Filter Queen was darn serious about Moth Control. Inside the bottom casing is a free running turbine that spools up to alarming speeds. It screams and whines like a jet engine and the De-Motherer acts like a gyroscope on the end of the hose. The shuttered tip of the crystal cone opens directly over the turbine, dispersing the gas at 'jetspeed'. I recall my Mom doing the Moth Control thing to all the closets and blanket chests twice a year. Smell didn't bother me and it faded quickly. Just as I enjoy the fumes of Gasoline when I fill the tank and I'll stick my nose in any jar of Vicks Metholated Rub. :-) |
