The American journal of the medical sciences
The American Journal of the Medical Sciences is a periodical of medical science, published in the United States in 1827 for physicians and medical readers. Its plates are anatomical engravings: a male back and neck view, a shoulder joint with scapula, and a cross-section of brain structures labelled with letters. For designers, the pictures offer clean, hatched line work in a scientific diagram style, with labelled cutaway views useful for technical or educational layouts.
