Antique Anatomy Atlas – Bodyscope by Ralph H. Segal, published by A.S. Aloe Company, Surgical Laboratory Supplies (St. Louis, Los Angeles, Kansas City), 1935.

A unique find!  This antique book includes 4 cardboard plates / charts with hand turned wheels to illustrate numerous anatomic drawings with historical references. The graphics are terrific and the text is remarkably formal, reverent, and amusing to a contemporary pathologist.

The condition of the graphics is Very Good although there is minor edgewear to the cardboard and the cover shows its age. The Atlas makes for a great display piece. It’s a unique piece of medical nostalgia. Measures 20 1/4 “ by 16 “.
