For Sale we offer this CAST METAL GOAT FOR GOVERNOR PAPERWEIGHT. This is from Dr. J.R. Brinkley's bid for Governor of Kansas in 1932. Dr. J.R. Brinkley was a quack doctor that was in Milford, Kansas. From 1917 through the 1930s, Dr. Brinkley made millions of dollars by implanting goat testicles in men to restore their virility. The paperweight looks to be brass and measures about 3 1/4" across at the base and stands about 3" tall. Also included with ...him is a copy of Dr. Brinkley's Doctor Book, dated 1933. The goat is in very good condition. The book has some storage wear. This is a rather rare piece of Brinkley memorabilia. Be sure to look at our other 13 auctions that we have listed this week. Thank you for looking.
