In the 1930s, an unknown English collector put together a large album containing approximately 400 alphabetised price lists, announcements, labels, information sheets and advertisements for contraceptives, which was then generously donated to the Museum. It was carefully disassembled by professionals, items damaged by moisture were smoothed out, corroded staples removed, and the individual pages have been placed in age-resistant Mylar sleeves.
The individual items have been inventoried and can be found in our database by means of the search function.
