London and Cambridge Macmillan and Co. 1862 was located at 16 Bedford Street, London. This was the publishing company that published Goblin Market and Other Poems by Christina Rossetti. Christina Rossetti’s, “Goblin Market” was influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood because her brother was a founding member and she would often pose for their art, as well as she would visit their exhibits and their meetings would be held at their family home.

Earlier in its creation in 1953, it was called HMH Publishing then became known as its given name today. Playboy Enterprises Inc. had been an adult entertainment business that made its reputation on the sensuality and objectification of women - marketing their magazines towards men through the passivity and consumption of the female image. At the same time, the significance of this location plays into Betty Friedan's demand of women's representation in mainstream media and what she had planned on endorsing.
