Harper's Weekly (33:1703), page 637, cover. By W. A. Rogers. Although this is a "tenement" there is an orientalist print (=Sephardic?) on the wall above a fireplace mantle; also note the doctor is taking pulse from wrist, without using a watch, while listening directly to the chest (heart or lungs?) without a stethoscope of any kind. No medical accoutrements other than the doctor's bag are seen. On page 651 (not included), the cover picture is mentioned: "The picture which appears on another page is an accurate representation of what was seen on a recent trip made in company with Dr. Davies Coxe, of the Summer Corps of the Board of Health." The "summer corps" is discussed in an editorial in Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper (54:1401), July 29, 1882, page 354 without illustrations. Hansen database #1540.
Puck (18:454), page184-185, center of a complete issue. "Uncremated Mugwump (from outside) 'If those old Bourbons take that…me, they'll be a little startled when they find out that I'm alive-and kicking'!" Cremation, but no technical information on cremation is provided in the picture. Hansen database #580.
