[Rarebooks] FS: 1926 California Public School League Anti-Vaccine Bulletin

[Joslin Hall Books & Ephemera]

1926 California Public School Protective League Anti-Vaccine Bulletin

Published in San Francisco & Los Angeles, Vol.7, No.1, September, 1926.

The League was “A Non-Sectarian, Non-political Organization  
Established for the Purpose of Protecting the Public Schools From  
Medical and Ecclesiastical Exploitation”. What they actually were was  
an anti-vaccine and anti Sex-Education pressure group which spread  
from California to other western states, starting with the Influenza  
epidemic of 1918/1919 and crusading against public health efforts to  
combat Polio throughout the 1920s. They were also very much against  
“hygiene and physiology” classes, claiming that untold innocent  
children were being traumatized by exposure to information about  
“disgusting diseases”. Near the end of this newsletter is a section  
detailing the League’s successful efforts to rid the city’s news  
stands of immoral and unwholesome magazines.

Four-panel paper folder. 6”x12” [folded]. Light wear, folds, minor soil. $75
