From the Sears, Roebuck catalogue of 1897: "Princess Bust Developer and Bust Cream or Food". "Will expand any lady's bust from 2 to 3 inches." The kit includes items that we talk about here all the time: topical cream for enlarging the breasts, and a tool for "pumping".
One has to wonder what ingredients were in the Bust Cream. The ad reads, "mainly pure vegetable oils, perfectly harmless." Did they know about botanicals such as pueraria mirifica, fennel and fenugreek, lavender and so forth? Were they added to the cream as well?
Did anyone actually achieve success by using this kit? And... did any genetic males secretly order and try to develop breasts on their own? I suppose we'll never know, but the kit price of $1.46 wasn't exactly cheap at the time. I can imagine the disappointment when, despite high hopes, no breast growth occurred--and there goes a buck and a half--wasted. Or maybe it did work...?
