When researchers are finished working with the archival boxes Special Collections pulls for them, I occasionally sneak a peek at the stash-- just to be nosy, or to share an item of interest for social media, or what have you.  

I’ve got to come clean about what initially drew me to examine the papers in one folder in particular, which came from the Planned Parenthood of Maryland collection. Three words jumped out from the page of a typewritten, mimeographed promotional flyer:  “WAY OUT SEX!!”.

Well, that's an attention-getter.
