Richard von Krafft-Ebing (1840–1902) was a German-Austrian psychiatrist and sexologist best known for Psychopathia Sexualis (1886), a clinical study of sexual deviations based on over 200 case studies.

Aimed at professionals and partly written in Latin to deter the public, the book examined fetishism, sadism, masochism, and homosexuality, which Krafft-Ebing viewed as deviations from procreative sex.

His personal photo collection, possibly linked to his research, includes unidentified erotic images resembling 19th-century "French postcards" featuring unknown models.

Trapper: A handshake? That’s all you got? She sounds like a weirdo.

Hawk: Possibly a fetish. There’s a case in Krafft-Ebing—a woman shook hands with 400 strange men in one night. Her hand is on display at the Berlin Academy of Medicine and Whoopee.

Trapper: Stop it, you’re getting me excited.
