10x8 B&W satin finish vintage photograph signed in black ink by Benjamin Spock. In excellent condition. (1903-1998) Benjamin Spock was an American pediatrician and left-wing political activist whose book Baby and Child Care (1946) is one of the best-selling books of the twentieth century, selling 500,000 copies in the six months after its initial publication in 1946 and 50 million by the time of Spock's death in 1998. The book's premise to mothers was that they "know more than you think you do." Spock's parenting advice and recommendations revolutionized parental upbringing in the United States, and he is considered to be among the most famous and influential Americans of the 20th century.This lot came from the Jim Wiggins collection we purchased in July 2022.
