According to many sources on the Internet, the Mortgage Lifter was not developed by Willam Estler. Instead, it is said to have been developed by M.C. "Radiator Charlie" Byles in Logan, West Virginia. Byles is said to have developed it in the early 1930s.
The Mortgage Lifter is known for its mild sweet flavour, and can weigh as much as 2 lbs.
