Vintage Enema Bags

I enjoy looking at vintage enema bags, their nozzles, their brand and model names, the boxes they came in, ads they were featured in, etc. I suppose others do as well. 😉

Some questions:

Yes, the Rexall Roxbury Fountain. I got my first bag enema with one.

The most unusual is probably the JBL Cascade.

Nothing specific.

Yes, the US Rubber Radio among others.

They used to have douche bags called tidy kits. they held around 12 oz but they were bad of latex, they were pink or yellow….one day i was at my aunty's house. went snooping in her bathroom's draws, saw her douche ba….I licked it and put it back

@Helping_Hands

It was not “tidy kit”. It was Tiny Kit.

There was a woman in Las Vegas that was custom making vintage looking new Rubber bags I purchased one from her years ago its demise was perfectly timed to when my wife became incapacitated, I tried contacting her again and although ETSY still shows her on their site she does not reply, Does anyone know if she is still around, or anyone else that is making similar bags, Not that it will do me any good, since I do not get the same feeling SOLO Need a woman at the other end, of my end

I have fabricated some latex folding bags, different sizes. I need to take some photos and post them. I don't have the time to get into the manufacturing business. I suppose I could make a small run of them. Someone gave me the idea of purchasing latex breathing bags. They are available in different sizes. I have to machine the plastic parts, the mouth and the fitting for the hose to attach. So far I have only found blue and black, wish I could find amber. the hoseman1

Endurance,red open top enema bag, also Davol Comfy closed top.

Sean mentioned the US Rubber “Radio”. I had a black one in my collection. The radio wave markings could appear as lightning bolts. U S Rubber made some of my favorites including the Royal, Olympic, Paragon, and all had some unique engravings.

The folding or travel douche bags each had their own ambience and jiggled as the solution flowed. The latex was nice and soft.

I really enjoy the Rexall bags including Victoria, Roxbury (aka Roxy), Defender, Kantleek, and Symbol.

Davol, Goodyear, BF Goodrich, Acushnet, and Faultless also had some great qualities.

My Sears 5 in 1 Combination may be one of the most thoughtful of it's time!

Is there any reason not to enjoy them all? Certainly not in the same session…!

Hoseman, do you have any suggestions/sources for how to get into working with rubber and elastomers at home? It's very different from hard materials.

I would like to use equipment that has already been by someone else, not dirty but knowing that it has already been used by someone else would be very cool

My mother had a Faultless fountain syringe from the 1960s. The box pictured a demure-looking young woman that implied internal cleansing was a natural necessity of being female. In addition to the syringe's feminine hygiene purpose, the enema was also part of the woman’s domain, as was nursing in those days.

@Vicki_V The box pictured a demure-looking young woman that implied internal cleansing was a natural necessity of being female.

Well said, great description, not just that but your entire post. As to demure image prominently shown on the outside of fountain syringe box, it was that that made buying it so very embarrassing - and yet at the same time made it all the more thrilling. I felt like I was entering a feminine domain where men had no business to be! One that was strictly for women, and anyone seeing me with the fountain syringe box in hand would think I was perverted.

Was it this picture:

I was thinking it was a Faultless Contessa fountain syringe in white - oh, seeing the box for that decades ago sitting on a shelf in the feminine hygiene isle made it something I had to have…..

I remember most distinctly that the combination syringe that we had for enemas was a B.F.Goodrich. Nothing fancy, but it did have a red hose and black nozzle. Not sure but mom's open top was from Sears.

Don't think I've seen that packing before. I like her look, like she's wise to what I'd be up to with that fountain syringe….

I wish I'd purchased the classic open top amber bag I saw back in 1985. A mom and pop drugstore was closing but I was sure there would be more available. And I had a smooth red combination bag that I bought in the mid eighties that was a favorite. Now “vintage bags” are way too expensive.

Moliere:

I know very little about plastics and elestomers. I once thought about molding some latex folding enema bags from amber colored latex, like mom used on me. I would have to make a mold and do multiple dippings into the liquid latex until the desired thickness was achieved. At least that's what I think. Stopping at the local plastic store, “TAP,” they do sell latex molding kits but they are for the purpose of making a latex mold, not the finished product. I have not pursued it. I've also read about making latex body parts, molding one's own arm, penis, or other item. For now, the easiest way is to purchase some of the latex breathing bags, those an anesthesiologist would use. I also thought about fabricating some JBL bags, but never got to it. Fabricating the plastic parts from PVC or delrin is not a problem, it's learning how to make things from latex.

How about this one >>> https://en.zity.biz/gallery/image/160953 ? l have that set, everything but the box, but l used to love to stare at her in the early / mid seventies.

Was brought up starting with a Rexall red bulb with black tip. Mom graduated me to the Rexall combo water bottle with red hose and black nozzle. A curved black douche nozzle was always hidden in the back of the bathroom drawer, which I used once I got hooked on enemas.

A red bag, hose, and black nozzle pictures now excites me no end, as well as the old and various nozzles made back then.

I was here, left and by chance came back, for good. Have to dig thru my mind.

Have been an Enema Buff since little and did not know it. An early memory, was on my stomach. Turned my head, mother (an old time nurse,

1929 to 60's), said: “I thought you liked them?” Was giving me an enema. (How many before this?)

Once left, said: When came back, said would give me an Enema. I dreaded this.

Recall coming home from school, sister was on the loo. Mother said: She came home Sick from School, I gave her an Enema.

She was 2 yrs younger, wish had photo or film of this. Mother must have used same equipment on both of us. She was a widow

when I was 10. Remember sister, Suzanne had a nice tush, guess I sometimes touched it, she would brush my hand away. No incest.

When I was in the Service, wonder how many sis got. Tried to get her to talk about them, no luck. Now down to the subject.

When no one home, I experimented.

Remember 2 Armstrong Hot Water Bottles, One Red/Orange, the other Black, I think from, Calvert Drug Company. (Baltimore, MD)

There was a long thin black corregated rubber hose, cheap metal clamp, have hose, it leaks.

Think 2 slip-on black adult pipes. (they were probably thrown away). I was caught with them once. Thought I was running Water thru them.

Mother said she gave many Enemas to Men and Women. Think the bags were ruined by heat.

Once found a Davol Red Rubber Rectal Tube in the basement? Still have.

Recall she loaned equipment to neighbor lady. Later when in their house, peeped in medicine cabinet, a glass with black hard rubber nozzles,

hope the daughter, Ann, was on the receiving end. Wish I was there.

My late wife was an ideal “enemate”. Had 2 girlfriends/enemates I found via Baltimore City Paper/Wide Side.

Current one knows, during sex I insert a Rectal Tube, which she plays with.

Been on Ebay since '03, found a Mint Red/Orange Art Weave Bag like used on me when 12, last one at home.

Once when younger, heard mother and sis upstairs, sis was Crying. Mother said, "if you won't let me give you an Suppository.

I'll have to give you an Enema. I enjoyed that.

Lets see , way back in early 1970's Sears and Roebuck had a Natural latex , tan , hot water bottle with graduations molded into the side . Loved that bag , could watch fluid level go down . Thing that ticked me was , I think the scale was upside Down , would have preferd Full marking to be starting on bottom end , so would know how much had been used , while in use .

@Kab How about this one >>> https://en.zity.biz/gallery/image/160953 ?

Yep! That’s the box I remember, and she’s my star! I didn’t recall that box was for a combo syringe. She is not only demure, but she‘s looking like the “hospital” enema bag inside the box is the height of femininity. The appeal to ladies scores a 10 on this image.

@reddevil Don't think I've seen that packing before. I like her look, like she's wise to what I'd be up to with that fountain syringe….

Not to discount this image of who appears to be a busy, efficient housewife. she looks to me like a woman who has the health needs of herself and family well in hand. She looks like she could leave work at noon, do a quick grocery shopping, get home and give her sick husband a reluctant enema, and be back to work by 1:15. I remember doing that once a few years ago, but I took a little longer. Thanks for the memories!

Almost 40 years ago had that same one with demure lady pic

Somehow l thought that's the one you were referring to,… l found that photo here on Zity, but it's the exact set l still have… except the box but l remember it well / fondly. My mom was an RN and it was in the house as long as l was or longer, so l'm guessing she got it in the mid- late 60's or very early 70's.

@Vicki_V She also looks like the kind of woman who would be douching during periods if she thought her husband would like to play hanky panky… or maybe she uses a diaphragm and needs to douche after sex.

Yes I have a fondness for the enema that was used when mom gave me enemas- the BF Goodrich No. 36F red rubber open top enema with the “rapid-flow” red rubber hose, chrome clamp and black nozzle set. It held close to 3 quarts. I now have a collection of them. Here is a photo: https://en.zity.biz/gallery/image/215099

Blue Pumpkin Bag

Was “Demure” ever a brand name for douche equipment? I had at one time a 1960s vintage folding travel size douche bag. It was light blue. It had an internal valve where you could squeeze it open to fill it under pressure from a faucet and then it would hold water without leaking. The other non-business end of the nozzle connected to a pipe with a flange. You would fill the bag, get into position, and then push the pipe through the valve to start the flow.

For me modern equipment as plastic bags has no charm. But every one to one's own taste. I gotta have a 1930-40 style bag and noz or a period douche/enema bulb.
