Founder of the American birth control movement and, later, the Planned Parenthood Federation of America. TLS, one page, 8.5 x 11, Birth Control Clinical Research Bureau letterhead, April 2, 1938. Letter to a supporter. In part, “I hope old and new friends will join us now in our last big pull; the inclusion of birth control service in local, state and national public health programs…Health departments in every community should make birth control a part of their service…Birth control can also help reduce the number of still-born and unwanted children, maimed in mind or body, innocent victims of venereal disease…All mothers who are ‘poor maternity risks’ have the right to contraceptive knowledge to save their very lives.” In very good condition, with mailing folds, scattered creases, a few tears to bottom edge and an area of paper loss to lower paragraph affecting a couple lines of text. R&R COA.
