Interesting Finds

Recently I’ve made two interesting and unique finds in local antique shops. Both pictures, both now hanging in our playroom.

The first is a photographic study of five nudes. Two standing, holding each other while the other three look on. Judging from the common items in the photograph, and the look employed by the models I would date it to the 1920’s. In keeping with the time it was produced, it is not a revealing photograph by modern standards.

What I find most interesting about it though is the apparent lack of body hair on each of the models. I’m quite used to seeing a lack of any body hair as Milliscent, Roxanne, and most of our female friends are all fully shaved, but it is odd to see that in vintage pornography. I wonder, was there a time in or around the 1920’s when like today a large percentage of women chose to fully shave, or was it done for this particular photograph due to some fetish the photographer or his client may have had.

The second is a photograph of a statue titled Cupid Punished. A fun little photo depicting a nude and childlike Cupid being held and birched by a nude and beautiful woman. I thought that it was perfectly fitting for our dungeon, and is certainly rather unique. Given today’s views of any childlike nudity I imagine that this statue would today offend many of the more prudish members of our society. This despite the fact that the mythical Cupid is anything but a child; he is of course many thousands of years old.
