I'm looking for the machine, or info and pictures thereof, that is pictured on this "canned ice" It is called "Handy-Hannah air conditionizer" It was manufactured by the Standard Products Corp. from Whitman, Ma. I have the can and I'm trying to determine if the machine ever existed, as my searches are coming up empty. I think the machine would be the perfect way to display my can. It operated, I'm guessing, by drawing room air over the canned ice on top and then blowing out the cooled air onto a person. Maybe the flow was the opposite. I have seen at least one other similar machine, but the can goes inside and therefore be unseen.
I think it existed. The manual was sold on ebay.
