Anthroponomy is an 1863 New York work on phrenology and magnetism by J. D. L. Zender, a self-styled system blending physiognomy with craniology for general readers interested in mesmerism and character reading. Its four engraved panels show head outlines with numbered cranial zones, a profile with lettered lines, and a frontal face with the same numbering, giving a designer a clear example of diagrammatic, labelled anatomical charts in a stark black-line style.
