THE 1¼ LB. HAND INCENDIARY HAND BOMB

The bomb provides a simple, quick method of setting fire to ?????, posts, buildings, crops, etc. To prepare it for use, remove the strip of adhesive tape and bakelite safety cap.

To fire the bomb, hold it in the hand, and either striker the .22 rim fire cap with a stone, or strike the cap against a hard surface. The striking must be done sharply.

There is a 5-second delay action after firing the cap, which allows the bomb to be pla-ced of thrown as required.

The bombs are packed 24 in a box, and no preparation is required.
