Description
New York, New York: Birth Control Federation of American, Inc, 1941. Very good. Light toning, extremities rubbed.. A scarce 1940s promotional booklet for the Margaret Sanger Research Bureau, the first birth control research bureau in the United States founded by the birth control activist and feminist educator Margaret Sanger (1879-1966) in 1923. The booklet begins with an emotional appeal to readers, describing a scene in which a young Sanger was unable to help her patient in childbirth early in her career as a nurse, and realized: "Something must be done about the needless, tragic waste of human life in childbirth". Readers are then shown the progress made in the past two decades towards making family planning accessible to all women and families. It gives a brief overview of the Bureau's services and activities, highlighting its twelve doctors on staff (all women), opening hours, counseling and clinical services offered. It operates on a policy that "no married women, with a health reason, who seeks the Bureau's aid shall be turned away unhelped. The Bureau serves both indigent mothers and those able to pay a moderate fee for the service rendered". An important relic of the early days of the modern birth control movement in America. Single vol. (6.25" by 3.25"), pp. [12], illus., in original illus. wrps with a striking photo of a woman in shadow entering the organization's famous premises on 17 West 16th Street in Manhattan.

Description
New York: Grosset & Dunlap. Near Fine in Very Good+ dj. [1925] (c.1924). PhotoPlay Edition. Hardcover. [minimal shelfwear to book, vintage bookseller's label (Geo. S. Chalmers, Rutland, Vermont) affixed upside-down on the rear pastedown; the jacket has a few tiny edge-tears and little bits of paper loss at most corners, a small array of little white scuff marks on the front panel, and an age-toned and somewhat mottled spine; also a long split at the lower front hinge has been internally and unobtrusively tape-repaired]. (8 B&W film stills) Comic romance novel about a guy who's "a shy, delightful character, but [is] easily frightened by women" -- until a young woman mysteriously moves into his apartment, and then just as mysteriously moves out again -- leaving him a changed man, but now stuck with trying to find her again. The 1925 Warner Bros. film adaptation, directed by the prolific and versatile William Beaudine, starred Matt Moore and Dorothy Devore. Somewhat unusually for a photoplay edition, the jacket illustration is identical to the first edition (published by the Penn Publishing Co.) rather than a scene from the movie; when the book was filmed again as a talkie in 1930 (and retitled WIDE OPEN), a new photoplay edition was issued with a different jacket. .
