working fireplace or wood stove bellows, mid-century vintage rustic primitive decor

1960s vintage wood and leather-look vinyl bellows - this actually works! There's a crack to the brass nozzle which is not particularly surprising as it's about 60 years old now.

But it still does the job with pretty good puff, much better than those hand crank modern blowers you see today.

I know this, because I just bought one of those dumb hand crank things for my brother's barbecue, and embarrassingly that thing did not work AT ALL.

And this old fashioned proper bellows also looks so cute and retro hanging at your fireplace, or to give that olde tavern or pub style to your bar.
