Enjoy the trailer for #EdenUndone, out 9/24! Ron Howard has a movie coming out, "Eden," about the same story, starring #sydneysweeney, #anadearmas, and #judelaw. The real characters all got a very nice glow-up! Read the true story before seeing the film: shorturl.at/PcVym

Thank you Kate for a wonderful book which I thoroughly enjoyed. Elizabeth Packard was a truly remarkable woman who greatly improved the lives of women in a time women had no rights.

The “Radiendocrinator” was designed by American Endocrine Laboratories in the 1920s. Radioactive radium soaked pieces of paper were put into the brass container, which was put into a jockstrap & worn next to the scrotum. It was supposed to cure impotence & rejuvenate the wearer
A photograph of the radiendocrinator. It is a small brass box, in a dark royal blue presentation case. The jockstrap it was worn in is laid out in the fore of the image. The box it all came in is open in the back of the picture, it also contains a small white cloth bag that the radium soaked paper came in. It doesn’t look like a medical set. It looks looks more like a fancy jewellery box or how a designer bag is presented.
