I love old advertising. It gives us a peek into another era. There were (and still are) some uncomfortable contraptions around, but nothing like the corset must have been!
Not a full body one, but I remember my mother wearing a girdle from time to time.
Btw, if you're talking about the IKEA by Portland Airport, that's the one we go to. About 30 miles away for us too, but worth the trip every now and again.
Ahaahahahaaa.....torpedo bra! Goodness! Can you imagine? I remember having to wear garter belts to which were affixed our netted hose. (grin) Oooooh, those things were uncomfortable!!!
Could not imagine the benefits of wearing a torpedo bra! Argh!
Some things are just too random to leave where I find them. These intrigue me. Like this 3x5" card I found in a batch of recipe cards I was going through ...
As life changes, I find myself far from what my dreams had imagined. Reality has found me caring for my elderly mom who is sliding deeper into Alzheimers ... every day has become a unique challenge. The best I can do is to try to life as normal as possible for those around me.

All that for only $4.98! It looks very uncomfortable.
