The American journal of the medical sciences
The American Journal of the Medical Sciences is a periodical of medical writing, published in the United States for physicians and medical students, and this record gives a 1827 date with a publisher listed in New Jersey. Its pictures are monochrome engraved and photographic plates of skulls and bone specimens with numbered leader lines marking anatomical features, offering a designer lessons in technical diagram labelling, cutaway cross-sections and the grey tonal rendering of bone.
