A Doctor's Marital Guide for Patients

Chicago, Illinois: Budlong Press Company, 1964. Very good to near-fine. Some minor toning, wear to extremities.. A printed sex education guide for married couples, written from the point of view of a doctor, broken into three parts: "Some Facts of Life" (sex anatomy, modern attitudes towards sex); "The Sexual Act" (desire, coital positions, hygiene); and "Conception and Pregnancy" (how conception occurs, and which birth control methods are available). The booklet a loosely inserted Coital Posture Diagrams Supplement, folded in quarto for what we assume is modesty, and labeled "To be dispensed at discretion of Doctor". Measures 5.5" by 4.25" folded. The booklet itself measures 6.75" by 5.5", pp. [6], 89, [1], illus., stapled in original printed teal wrappers. Included is a chapter titled "Sex Anomalies and Abnormalities" which covers "homosexuality; hermaphroditism; nymphomania; prostitution; and priapism" (note the stigmatizing chapter title).
