Reference Windsor, William: How to Become Rich. 18 Sept 07

[RWood]

You asked for it, you wanted it, you couldn't live without it. So at great personal sacrifice (mainly to my dignity) I offer for your consideration, How to Become Rich.

Not another get rich quick, snake oil filled scam book (unless you are William Windsor), but a study in the pseudo-science of Phrenology. (That's where we determine your character by the shape of your head.) If you have ever just looked at a person and known what type they are, then you have practiced Phrenology.

Now the offers in the back of the book to send in photographs of your head and receive a four page report printed on cardboard suitable for framing has expired. Sorry, no rain checks.

So sit back and enjoy a trip down memory lane to the snake oil and patent medicine days of the late 19th century USA.

I thought that I was posting some daft books. But yours tells people to eat sand.

Not only does it tell them to eat sand, it offers to sell them that sand at fifty cents a pound.
