A rare surviving jacket in any condition.

Sofie worked between the World Wars at the Marriage Advice Bureau, where women's marital and sex problems were dealt with - probably for the first time anywhere - exclusively by other women. Lazarsfeld also managed an inquiry and advice correspondence business set up by a Viennese newspaper. The Marriage Advice Bureau was shut down after the Nazis came to power in 1934. A watershed book in the women's rights movement of the early 20th Century.
