Default Great Stamp Blunders #57 The wheelwright

Somebody should have mentioned to the artist
that there is a mathematical maxima for the amount of spokes
one can fit in a wooden wheel.
This fellow sure is heading for a headache............

but he has at least contributed to our list of "Great Blunders" :0)

Phew!
You wouldn't want to be smoking any of Columbia's finest
if you intend studying this stamp.

Try and grab a broomhandle in the way this fellow
has hold of the hub wrench, and see if your bicep
appears vertical to your elbow.

He certainly is dextrous!

He certainly wouldn't get much leverage - appears to be both pulling and
pushing at the same time.
