Chicago: [Dr. M. Sayle Taylor Hygienic Orificial Co., 1928] First edition. OCLC records no copies. Original paper wrappers in blue, green, orange, and buff. Enclosed in the original envelope titled in blue. Four booklets (4" x 6 "). . Booklet titles are Natural Birth Control and Predetermination of Sex, How to Know Your Affinity: A Study of Glands, Facts for Wives: Plain Truths about Marriage, and Sex Knowledge for Children: A Parent's Duty to the Child. Envelope chipped at edges. Booklets are bright and clean. A very good set of rare women's health guides originating from the hugely lucrative radio quack industry of the early-to-mid twentieth century. Marion Sayle Taylor was a radio host, quack doctor, and patent medicine salesman. His CBS radio show commanded a wide audience, and Taylor received between ten and twenty thousand letters a week. He "treated" these patients in bulk by prescribing expensive patent medicine for common symptoms. Taylor's fellow radio hucksters included astrologers, matchmakers, and many other quacks. These stars sidestepped the FDA and FTC by setting up transmitters in northern Mexico, where the United States government had no jurisdiction, and broadcast at up to a million watts — about two hundred times the reach of radio broadcasts on US soil. Taylor devotes plenty of pages to his slightly esoteric ideas about matchmaking and pregnancy. In How to Know Your Affinity, he proposes that every person can be sorted into one of eight categories named after various glands (pituitary, adrenal, etc.) that indicate one's appearance and character. Certain categories necessarily attract or repel each other, and the ideal match is found in two people who naturally attract one another. The author also posits in Natural Birth Control and Predetermination of Sex that parents can control the sex of a child by conceiving under "male" or "female" moons, which correspond to specific days of the month.

London: Bernard Quaritch, 1880 First edition. Original cream-colored paper boards, neatly rebacked, with modern paper spine label. . Octavo. Some dampstaining to boards. Toning to endpapers. Very clean inside. A very good copy. After a perusal of my list I think every gentleman will agree with me that Ladies really are very aggravating. It would be curious to hear the exclamation of any lady who has written as 'A lady,' upon looking it over. She would probably exclaim that when she wrote as 'A lady,' she thought she was the only one, at all events one of the first… "…[T]hough these ladies do not like placing their names on their books, yet there is little desire to disguise the authorship, and enquiries are generally soon satisfied if a work has attained any success. They like to see themselves in print, so long as there is no infringement of the patent of modesty," (p. 7).
