I ordered a pair when I was a young teenager with randy thoughts going through my mind. Was I ever disappointed when they arrived in the mail and the x-ray lenses were actually feathers that blurred your vision.
Oh yeah, X-Ray Glasses, Throw Your Voice gadgets, Cloverine Brand Salve, “Darling, Trainable Sea Monkeys”. sell Grit, the newspaper, qualify for valuable gifts - all kinds of fascinating things to trick kids out of their money.
(Of course, if the X-Ray glasses had actually worked…)
Ushindi:
i sold that cloverine salve when i was 9 or 10, did pretty good too i think it was $.50 a tin, and i did pretty good when my brother joined junior achievements corp. i sold more than he did
I didn’t think that even x-ray goggles could penetrate the smoke in the Teachers’ Room. When I was in school (O so loooong ago) that was the only room that stank worse than the boys room.

Lesson learned by Lio: don’t hang out by the Teachers Lounge with your x-ray specs (unless your teacher looks like Michelle Pfeiffer).

Won’t stop the lawsuits. Good thing the real ones never worked as advertised…
