Ok, I should be working on a tenure review today, but instead am going down internet rabbit-holes. The latest involves a collection of #scrapbooks kept by the students of #AmherstCollege in the late #19c, a young man named William Belcher Whitney included. Here is an esp strange & imho creepy page, on which he's arranged into a heart shape the hairpins he's collected from his acquaintance at #MtHolyoke. There's a great discussion of this book on the Amherst Special Collections blog, ca 2012.
