I find that in most cases the fees have been about fifty or sixty dollars and as I have already indicated for some of the briefer talks somewhat less."<p>Joseph Jastrow 1863-1944 was a Polish-born American psychologist noted for inventions in experimental psychology design of experiments and psychophysics. He also worked on the phenomena of optical illusions and discovered or popularized a number of well-known illusions.

A number of prominent Austrian designers were commissioned to work on the project and the resulting designs ranged from kitchen bedroom and living furniture to wall shelving and lamps all emblazoned with the "SW" logo. The furniture and fittings produced by the SW are considered to have had a significant influence on mid-century Austrian design and extant furniture from the period is still highly in demand today. <br /> <br /> Booklets 5.75 x 7 inches.
