A 97 minute DVD of classic Venereal Disease instructional and educational films from the World War II era - a time when VD threatened individual lives, the integrity of the family and the productivity of a nation at war. These films come from the A/V Geeks Educational Film Archive and proceeds from this sale go to support the archive, so that these films can be preserved for future generations.
Titles Include:
With These Weapons (1939) 10 minutes A stirring piece that shows the history of syphilis in the United States and its rampant epidemic among adults.
Health Is A Victory (1942) 11 minutes This film focuses on the gonorrhea, the "Great Sterilizer" and how an epidemic could affect the productivity of a company town and the war effort.
A Message To Women (1945) 20 minutes A rarity among VD education films - this film is meant for women. It demonstrates that even "a good girl" from an educated, rich family can be infected.
Story of DE 733 (aka USS VD: Ship of Shame) 46 minutes The classic Navy VD film that shows what happens when an entire ship is too sick from VD to fight properly. Hiliarious!
