You Dirty Rat: Rat Extermination Pamphlet

As the proud owner of nine pet rats, I occasionally like to feature rat-related ephemera. This informational booklet from the 1930's always cracks me up because of the instruction on the backside that says you should "shoot" rats. It just seems so ludicrous. I imagine some redneck with a rifle and no teeth chasing rats in his outhouse. And probably unsuccessfully too. They are fast!
