Vintage rabbit mask with real teeth 🐰
Behind the dusty cabinet doors of the Museum of Curiosities, you’ll find everything from a turtle with the head of a boy to a mummified mermaid with two heads, from deep-sea fish to horrifying torture devices. Come along and get curious 👁️🕯️
Allergy Annie 🤧
Allergy Annie was a doll created by the Honeywell HVAC company to advertise their air-cleaning products. You could get the doll and a coloring book for free if you agreed to let a company representative visit your home and show how their air cleaner worked.
I bought a doll in France said to be haunted by the seller’s grandmother. It was said to turn its head and whisper “Agnes” at night. Unlike most “haunted dolls” online, the eBay listing made no mention of it being haunted in the title, only a brief note in the description.

Blood Circulator 🩸
Dr Macaura's Blood Circulator, invented by Gerald Macaura in 1902, was a hand-cranked device claiming up to 5,000 vibrations per minute to improve circulation but was mostly used as a vibrator.
Macaura, not a qualified doctor, was convicted of fraud in France in 1914 and jailed.
