Solicitation or receipt of order for prohibited liquors or beverages.

Any person who within this state solicits or receives any order for any spirituous, vinous or malt liquors or any other liquors or beverages prohibited by the law of the state to be sold or offered for sale or otherwise disposed of in this state in any quantity to be shipped into this state or to be shipped from one point in this state to another point in this state shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. The taking or soliciting of such orders is within the inhibition of this section, although the orders are subject to approval by some other person and no part of the price is paid nor any part of the goods delivered when the orders are taken.

If such order is in writing, parol evidence thereof is admissible without producing or accounting for the absence of the original.
