This and other volumes in the Rational Sex Series are copyrighted by Richard G. Badger, and published by his Gorham Press. Badger was convicted in 1923 of publishing obscene literature. His papers — in later years, evidently later than the Rational Sex Series — are at Harvard’s Houghton Library, MS Am 2067. His operation has been described as a “forerunner of the modern vanity press” — he published Willa Cather’s April Twilights in 1903.
