Monday Bonus: In Today’s Mailbag . . .

We received a chastity belt.
chastity belt Lovett Hall

It came with a nice note, letting us know that the author’s father found it in the Administration Building (Lovett) in the 1930s.

One can only hope it was a theatrical prop of some sort.

    Sheesh. At least it doesn’t have spikes like some I’ve seen.

    “Dr. Polasky’s Approved Chastity Protector – Guaranteed Virginity” is certainly all over the Google. Authenticity seems questionable. It may be a modern reproduction (heh, heh) of some 19th century item. Or not. But they’re out there for sale from “antiques” sellers. Maybe other sellers, too; I didn’t look very far.

    I feel I must point out that a proper chastity belt would not have a slot in the crotch. And it would come with a proper hasp and lock.
