One potato, two potato...

This timely little pewter piece reminds of us the day that our incarcerated citizens actually did hard work.  They sat and peeled potatos for hours, giving them plenty of potato peeling skills in the case that they didn't have a life sentence.  This is of course as opposed to today, when prisoners watch Maury on their flat screen televisions and flit around with match.com.  Franklin Mint wants us to remember the good ol' days.  The days depicted in Shawshank Redemption when a day of hard work was rewarded with a beer, or possibly a nice ass pounding by one of your prison-friends.
