Description
June Edmonton A shipment of lesbian and gay books and other items from the Oscar Wilde Memorial Bookshop in New York to Vanguard Books in Edmonton was detained by Canada Customs because of their "controversial" nature. The books (including The Joy of Lesbian Sex) were available elsewhere in Edmonton, and in other Canadian cities. When the two bookstores protested the seizure, the shipment was released.
