Manchester: Transformation, No date.Mail-order catalogue for Transformation, the English transsexual mail-order company founded in 1984 by Stephanie Anne Booth (1946-2016).

Booth’s entrepreneurial ventures under the Transformation banner later extended to a gender identity clinic, a contact and dating magazine, and other related services. Her activities occasionally drew controversy, culminating in her arrest for running a bawdy house in connection with a massage service operated under the same name. This catalogue reflecting some of the risque aspects of her business, featuring titillating photography and fetishwear alongside transformation aids and fashion items.
