The American journal of the medical sciences
The American Journal of the Medical Sciences was a periodical published in the United States in 1827, aimed at physicians and medical students and carrying case reports, surgical methods and anatomical study. The four plates show a dissected uterus and ovary, an open mouth and throat seen from the front, a sectioned larynx and trachea, and a splinted limb in a wooden frame with a pulley, drawn in dense hatched line that a designer could borrow for clinical or scientific diagrams.
