Slue-Foot Sue's Bustle

Origin
Description of the story:

One day, when Pecos Bill was riding his 'hoss, a pretty young lass called Sue became his heart's boss. She was Oh! such a lady, and Oh! such a sight! He spelled his proposal in the stars that night. Sue was glad, she loved Pecos Bill, but asked for two things, lest the matrimony still. One, a fine bustle, of the best spring and silk, and two, for an opportunity to that she'd want to milk. While Bill would give her the best bustle that money could make her, he gulped and sweated when she insisted to ride Widowmaker. Widowmaker, Bill's horse, was cranky and mad, to lose to this woman his own very best lad. So when Sue sat down on Widowmaker's broad back, he bucked so much that even Bill had lost track. But Sue was sure footed, and held on quite fast - until, of course, what was to happen happened at last. Her bustle kept on bouncing, and bounced her right off! She bounced to the moon! Bill mourned at her loss, and cries to the moon, hoping one day to see her, perhaps someday soon.

This was used as inspiration for part of the Disney movie “Melody Time”.

Effects
The bustle, of course, was collected, still pretty, and retains to this day high tensile elasticity.
