Natural Curiosites, Vintage
Brady’s Cyclopedia of Health
$27.00
Mid century boxed set of pamphlets meant to educate on a variety of health issues from “reducing” to “unbidden” guests (because we must all cope with vermin, pests and parasites.) Pregnant? An adequate diet would include “two or three balls of butter.” These and many other health tips and lessons are included.
The last pamphlet, The Calcium Shortage” is missing from the set. Pamphlets 19 and 22 are oddly not a part of the set as shown in the chronological listing of included lessons.
The pamphlets are in unread condition, although the cardboard box has some torn paper as shown.
