A screenshot of an Instagram post from nothinghappenedtoday. It features a handrawn schematic for a ‘sock resizer’ that looks suspiciously like something else. The caption reads: Schematics for Dr. Harold Listrom's "Sock Circumference Resizer" -- a late-1800s invention designed for gently widening the opening of men's hosiery without damage or tears. For use when your delicate socks have become too tight and uncomfortable from lack of use. Just insert and twist the dial at the flared base -- An internal worm screw will expand the segments, lightly dilating the sock to a more relaxed fit. Drawn with an extra-fine Rotring Art fountain pen with Platinum carbon ink on a 11x14" Strathmore 300 Bristol Board. #PenAndInk #Drawing #FountainPen #DrListrom
Stede Bonnet definitely has one of these ‘sock resizers’ and Ed definitely finds it.
