It is a gun-control law enacted by one Timothy Sullivan in New York in the early twenties, shortly after World War I. The attempted assasination of Mayor Gaynor in I believe l9l3 shot off a big ruckus for gun control. Permits are required and traffic in portative firearms ( such as handguns- pistols and revolvers) was tightly regulated. the law is still in effect. Later legislators went further and today- there are no firearms stores in Manhattan proper. at one time Abercrombie and Fitch, and Hermans ( now defunct) had gun departments right in the heart of the city. This is all post Sullivan Law.

Why are woman Sullivan?
The question is somewhat nebulous, and somebody also, in connection with Helen Keller , asked about the Sullivan Law. The Sullivan Law, dating to l920 is a tight gun control law in New York State- It tightly restricts what are now called handguns ( pistols and revolvers, particularily concealable one) there are exceptions for police and security guards, armored-car personnel, etc, but few sporting angles. The Sullivan Law is one of the more unpopular Gun control laws in the US. The attempted assasination of Mayor Gaynor in I believe l9l3 helped prompt the concern. Gaynor recovered but died fairly young some years later.- now to Anne Sullivan, she was the teacher of Helen Keller. Unlike her pupil , she was not totally blind and did have (possibly she had an operation on her eye) some limited vision and wore eyeglasses- regular, not dark. She was married to a man named Macy- hence is known as Anne Sullivan Macy. I believe she died in either l93l or l935 look it up.
