Today I Saw:

-Thomas Jefferson's Notes on Virginia with his handwritten corrections.
-His architecture plans for the Rotunda at UVA.
-The first edition of Leaves of Grass.
-The first edition of Howl.
-The first account of the Lande of Virginiae that describes the loss of this colony called Roanoke.
-The mockup for Huckleberry Finn in which an angry illustrator had inserted lewd images.
-Pornagraphic Japanese teacups.

Go figure.

Pornagraphic Japanese teacups.
Ah, the Japanese. Finding new and inventive ways to get your kink on since... well... forever I think. How old are those teacups anyway?

I'm pretty certain they were twentieth century, post WW2. The pictures were in the bottom of the cup so you could get a surprise when you drank all your tea.

How kitschy! That's kind of like those girls on novelty pens that "strip" when you turn them right-side up.

Basically--no more than mildly amusing. Frankly if it hadn't been in the setting of a librarian at a Respectable Institution (TM) passing them around, it would have been merely meh. As it was, it was like, "Oh. Boobs! How quaint!"
