Down memory lane

 

If you can remember your mom in a real heavy-duty girdle (with stocking clips and straps), you were probably born in the forties or fifties. This one is made of pure rubber, with ventilating holes that left raised polka dots.

That bra would fit me very nicely... if I fastened it in front.
