"Ex-Wife" by Ursula Parrott was the novel that was filmed as "The Divorcee," for which Norma Shearer earned an Academy Award for best actress, 1930.

OMG me too - was just going to post that I love it when women bob for "apples" while in bondage gear....

"Honey? Do you want to bob for apples after I tie your wrists? I saw it on this Redbook cover."

"Hmmm. I hadn't thought of that. Sounds different!"

Redbook: Corrupting America Since 1933.

(Now I need to see when Margaret Brundgage did those Weird Tales covers and see how much bondage floated in the zeitgeist.)

this here has some covers...it does NOT have october's but it has sept. and novembers and it has the same type and the same 'complete novel' claims....

No one but me wants to read White Piracy? XD

That's looking like a little more bondage fun than I normally associate with apples, lol. ~Bobbing, indeed!
