Fowler's New illustrated self-instructor in phrenology and physiology : with over one hundred engravings, together with the chart and character of ... as marked by ... / by Lorenzo N. Fowler.
An 1891 London phrenology manual by Lorenzo N. Fowler, a self-instruction guide for general readers who wanted to read character from head shape. The pictures are paired woodcut profiles and frontal heads of men, with numbered points marking skull regions. A designer could take the crisp hatched line work, the side-by-side comparison layout, and the old-fashioned pseudo-scientific diagram style for period or vintage projects.
