Later in the 20th century the company would obtain the first major contract to sell Disney character merchandise. According to this book -- the only published history of this successful company - George Borgfeldt "conceived of the idea" of being able to offer Americans merchants easier access to a variety of foreign goods by "assembling in New York samples of the products of the best factories of Europe manufacturing dolls toys and kindred articles and of booking import orders through the display of these samples." His first location at 83 Leonard Street in New York City had 6.750 square feet of display space in which 100000 items were available for inspection by wholesale buyers. The text goes on to describe the evolution of this sales model and the company's subsequent growth. Separate short sections summarize the history of each of the different sales departments. Geo.

The Stupidity of Us Humans

20639New York: Voluntary Parenthood League. Softcover. Very good. Undated ca. 1920. 4 pp ca. 6 x 8 inches self wrappers. Some old creasing general handling wear; very good. Social reformer Mary Ware Dennett 1872-1947 founded the Voluntary Parenthood League in 1919. The organization's main goal was to change the Comstock Laws so information about birth control would not be deemed obscene and could legally be distributed by mail. In this pamphlet Dennett argues that just as humans eat for pleasure as well as from necessity and just as they chose stylish clothes rather than the simplest thing that will keep them warm so there are "similar emotional mental moral and spiritual values to be derived from this function sexual relations." Getting "the Birth Control question straightened out" she argues "is the first imperative step. It will open the way for all the rest. And presently it will be as natural to apply science and art to sex relations as it is now to the matters of food clothes and shelter." Voluntary Parenthood League paperback books
