Grandma BurrightNeva Grandma Burright was born on a race track in 1883, and her 57 year career as a harness racing driver spanned the county fair circuit to the early years of pari mutuel harness racing after World War II. During the 1940s and 1950s, major newspapers from Boston to Honolulu reported on Grandma Burrights exploits as a harness racing driver.

Neva ÒGrandmaÓ Burright was born on a race track in 1883, and her 57-year career as a harness racing driver spanned the county fair circuit to the early years of pari-mutuel harness racing after World War II.

During the 1940s and 1950s, major newspapers from Boston to Honolulu reported on Grandma BurrightÕs exploits as a harness racing driver. In 1943, she became the first woman to win a Grand Circuit race. In doing so, she defeated the legendary Sep Palin, Òthe aristocrat of drivers,Ó who had the financial backing of automobile heiress Frances Dodge Johnson. During that Grand Circuit race in Delaware, Ohio, Grandma Burright and Luckyette, her bay gelding, also shocked the harness racing world by setting a record for women drivers over a half-mile track with a time of 2:04 _.

In addition to Grandma BurrightÕs victories on race tracks, general audience magazines such as Coronet, Esquire, Hit!, Life, and Look magazines featured her in articles. She also appeared before millions on national television in 1954 and stumped the panelists on WhatÕs My Line?

In Grandma Burright: The Queen of Harness Racing, Kevin Groenhagen explores Grandma BurrightÕs legacy as a wife, mother, grandmother, and, of course, as a harness racing driver. He examines how a diminutive woman of modest means overcame numerous tragedies (the death of a husband, two grandsons, and two sons, all within 12 years) to become known as ÒThe Queen of Harness Racing.Ó

Surprisingly Effective and Convenient!
Color: Bag Petrol
I wasn’t sure what to expect with the purse clean ball, but it has turned out to be a great little gadget! It’s simple to use—just toss it into your purse, and it quietly works to pick up crumbs, lint, and small debris. The sticky interior does an excellent job of collecting all the random dirt that accumulates, and it’s easy to clean—just rinse it under water, let it dry, and it’s good as new. I also love that it’s compact and doesn’t take up much space in my bag. If you want an easy way to keep your purse tidy without constantly emptying and shaking it out, this is a fun and effective solution. Highly recommend it for anyone who likes to keep their bags neat and clean!

Highly recommend
Color: Black
I love these so much. They make the perfect stocking stuffer but as a chronically messy person, I love throwing them in my purse or backpack. They pick up so much and are really easy to wash off.

Clean Your Purse
Color: Pink
This ball is pretty cool. It acts like a lint roller inside your purse getting all the dirt, crumbs, & lint that accumulates at the bottom. When it's looking nasty, you can rinse it off in the sink & it's good to go back in your purse. It's one of my best Amazon purchases and I will probably buy again if/when the sticky wears off or having a spare on hand.

Value for money
Color: Blue
This definitely is something to have. Used it a lot while travelling and for office use as well. It takes out all the gunk from the bag and is easy to clean as well

Had this in a back pack for a year and wow. The dirt collected is kinda shocking. I will buy more of these for different bags!
