Semi-scientific study on the female reproductive organs, menstruation and sexuality. Illustrated with black and white drawings. With list of other publications of the publisher. Text in Dutch. Gezondheids-bibliotheek van het geslachtsleven no. 10 [originally published in 1903 by Van Klaveren's geïllustreerde volksbibliotheek. 1e serie; 2].

This copy in loose 'Art Nouveau' cover with signature L.K.C.P. The cover has traces of staples and is printed on the inside with "L.H.A. Drabbe, De laatste Adem" [1916]; the question here is whether an old cover has been reused out of necessity (paper scarcity?) or to distribute and/or read the book anonymously.

¶ Booklets like this were seen as stimulus reading and were sometimes confiscated. Read Bert Sliggers, De zedeloze jaren 30 (2020) about clandestine erotica.
