I stormed around the place for weeks shouting to myself in full Indiana Jones fashion "IT BELONGS IN A MUSEUM!" I still stand by that.
It is such an important piece of our Irish sexual history, but often times unless there's a connection to the Famine or 1916, really cool artefacts like these that give us a glimpse into the sex lives and humour of our ancestors are de-prioritised and forgotten.
