About This Item
[Chicago]: Lanteen Laboratories, 1942. Sextodecimo (6.25" x 3.5"), 20 pages, illustrated in color throughout. Publisher's stapled pictorial paper wraps.
Modest edge wear including a small loss along the right side of the front cover & rubber stamp of Smith's Drug Store, Hanover, Pennsylvania at the verso, otherwise very good.
An uncommon pamphlet which describes Lanteen Laboratories' cap diaphragm & provides directions for use. The company was founded by Rufus Riddlesbarger in 1928. In 1948 he was prosecuted unsuccessfully for statutory rape involving a house servant. Shortly thereafter Riddlesbarger left the United States and passed away in Addis Ababa in 1968.
The final page offers advertisements with pricing for some of the company's other products including "Exteen" which "Stops your pain and headaches."
"Not only newly-wedded womanhood, but also other millions of wives and mothers are longing for a better solution to the age-old problem of Marriage Hygiene. Women are looking with open minds at intimate subjects, frankly anxious for advice from a competent source ..." ~Excerpted from the text.
