Vital resources;
Vital resources is an 1869 New York self-published work by Jerome Kidder, catalogued under mind and body and personality disorders, apparently written for a general reading public. Its four engraved plates are labelled anatomical diagrams of the brain, nerves and vessels, with lettered keys (a, b, c, d) and fine parallel hatching that gives a dense, scientific texture a designer might borrow for technical or medical-themed layouts.
