Dr. Fredric Wertham #17 - Dr. Wertham was a German-American psychiatrist and author. Wertham had an early reputation as a progressive psychiatrist who treated poor black patients at his Lafargue Clinic when mental health services for blacks were uncommon due to racialist psychiatry. Wertham also authored a definitive textbook on the brain, and his institutional stressor findings were cited when courts overturned multiple segregation statutes, most notably in Brown v. Board of Education. He also wrote <I>Seduction of the Innocent</I> which was published in 1954. It blamed comic books for juvenile delinquency and played a large part in getting the Comics Code adopted by the comics industry. Comic fans generally hate him.

Studio Hades card by Acheron Mint. Painted cards, 2 ½ by 3½ inch on 14 pt. card stock. These cards emulate the production values of vintage cards wonderfully well.

This is a brand new card from a recently opened pack. I'm trying to complete a set of all twenty sketch cards so I have quite a few duplicate base cards. I've decided to break up a couple of sets for those persons who have no interest in the entire set but who might one individual cards.
