I never knew that such things existed, and that there were model kits for them too. link
Anyway, if you are totally bored and you need a VERY unusual subject to scratchbuild one of your own, here it is. Dan

Dan, you need to find two books by Charles "Chic" Sale--"The Specialist" and "I'll Tell You Why." Old comedy routines which will tell you more than you ever wanted to know on the subject. |

i don't get it…is the upper hole offset? Otherwise somebody would get pooped on!! ewwwww |

They had a simple form of plumbing to carry "waste" down to the latrine beneath the outhouse so…yeah – you shouldn't get pooped on… |

These are very common in Maine. Management uses the upper, employees the lower. Nothing special with the plumbing. |

I always wondered why the outhouse had a sign with "Chic" Sale" over it when it was built. Wasn't sure why they took a picture next to it either back in the 30's. I wonder if my grandfather liked or hated Charles humor? |

My co-worker was of ethnic eastern European (Slavic) decent and had a model of one of these on her desk 25 years ago. She referred to it as a "P_____ Outhouse". Not my label, but hers! She got a big laugh out of explaining it to slow witted folks. And her model did NOT have separate plumbing… |
