The Bathroom Readers’ Institute

With fans from among the legions of bathroom readers—and others who simply love fun and offbeat facts—the Bathroom Readers’ Institute has sold more than 3 million books from their Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader series. Now in its fifth year, this calendar brings the inspired quirkiness of the books from the toilet to the desktop. Each day offers trivia with a sense of humor. Learn why Vivien Leigh threatened to quit doing love scenes with Clark Gable while filming Gone with the Wind. The startling origins of striped barbers’ poles. And Myth-Conceptions, Uncle John’s Space Patrol, and Legal Briefs.
