I’ll post a regular photo set either saturday or sunday, but I just wanted to post a few photos of the jail cell I just got. I just picked it up today so it still needs some work and a good paint job, but it is still very secure. I’m not sure of the exact date it was built, but it was pre 1902. I put it in the garage when I got it home and will probably use it on sunday when I shoot with Adara. The bunks need some work, but they also fold up against the wall so they are out of the way when you want more room in the cell. I spent the last few hours organizing the garage with the help of JJ Plush (see photo below) so I will be able to shoot with it on sunday. My original plan was to cut the rivets off around the corners so I could take it apart and then bolt it together, but after cutting off just 1 rivet I decided to leave it together for now. I will have to eventually take it apart to put it in the studio though. You’ll still see the jail cells on gotcuffs, but this will just give something different to use from time to time. It will make a good holding cell for intake. I took a few photos that you can see below and I’ll post some more pics when it gets painted.
Hi Tony,
this is definitely exciting. Great catch you made. Couls also imagine it being used as a holding cell at intake for naughty and resisting captives before being processed, but also as a special punishment cell with two inmates properly restrained to the bunks and another one securely bound fixed on a chair…could be fun!

This would be an excellent replacement for the chairs that the prisoners sometimes sit on. Any girls locked in here should still be handcuffed and fettered.
Also, this is an excellent punishment and isolation cell.
Those free standing cells were often mounted on horse drawn carriages in the 1800s. They were used mostly for prisoner transport across long distances as well as holding cells for public hangings. That’s a really cool piece of history you have there. It would make for a really cool “old west” shoot with a girl in period costume and darby cuffs.
What about girls being incarcerated for 24 h? Any new developments on that?
I agree with MX304. old west shoots would be fun.
what about the prison van?
Everyone that wants to see a van should paypal Tony 5 bucks so he can get one faster instead of just bitching that there isnt one. Maybe mail him whatever the shoe, sock or costume preference is instead of complaining that he doesn’t use them either. I’m sure he would take advantage of whatever was sent. I don’t think hes rich.
I’m still looking for a van. I put bids on a couple, but got outbid. I also don’t really have a place where I can use a van right now, but I’m close to having a place to shoot where I will be able to shoot outside with a van. Once I get a more permanant place to shoot I will also be adding new uniforms/shoes/cuffs/restraint chair…etc.
