Interesting Find With The Manticore


Recommended Posts

Hey all,

Was detecting on a river bank in West Virginia a couple of weeks ago and found this interesting find. It is an aluminum lid off a 1920s-1930s condom container. The container held three of them and they were marketed as "reusable." Anyways, you never know what you'll find near riverbanks.

The 3 Merry Widows are Agnes, Mabel and Beckie. 

Thought you might get a kick out it. 

Happy hunting,

John

John,

I've found several of these, though it's been awhile.  Always gives me a chuckle when I dig one!

1920's eh?

Probably made with toxic rubber, had a lead base, glowed with radium, and sprinkled with cocaine.

Not only would a man not get a women pregnant using one of those, but they would both become sterile...with a nice glow 😁
