Wolbarst and issued in London and New York by Rebman for physicians. The colour plates are tipped-in clinical photographs of torsos and backs, hand-tinted in pale flesh pinks against solid black borders, useful for their vignetted framing, muted skin palette, and abstract patterns of spots and lesions on plain ground.
