Obsolete is an amazing antique shop in Venice, California that specializes only the most high quality, unusual, and arcane of trinkets. In addition to a wide variety of creepy mannequins and dolls, their website also features one of the greatest advertising characters ever created: The Akron Truss Boy!!! I can’t imagine how much he costs, but the price would, of course, be well worth it.

My Akron Truss Makes Me Happy!
There are too many exceptional trinkets here to describe them all, so you really should go and browse the store yourself:

Alas, you could own your own Akron Truss, if not Truss-boy!

For those who can never get enough trusses, there’s _Cluthe’s Advice to the Ruptured_ at http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/19933 The html version has pictures (“The Cruel Spring Truss”).
I have an Akron truss boy. Do you have any idea how much he is worth?
