To make $$ for it's marketer. If the question had been "What is this?" then I
would have answered "A U.S. Patent Hopeful that probably didn't make the grade."

With nothing but rug pile to hint at scale, I thought the plastic thingie might
goe under a tire that's stuck in mud or snow. But then why is it *smooth*? And
why *two* retrieving ropes?

Looks like one of the many valuable items that found new life in the All
Electronics catalog ... and remained for eons. :-)
