Happy 95th birthday Dr. Buzz Aldrin!

Word of the day is 'spigot': a short metal rod which connects the base plate to the foot or ankle of a mannequin, providing support and stability. 'Bum Spigot': like a spigot, but up the bum. Example: Our Curator used a bum spigot to display Buzz Aldrin's underwear.
