About This Item
Washington DC: GPO, 1909. Pamphlet. 11p., illustrated with modern diagrammatic depictions and one interesting old woodcut. Softbound, a stapled pamphlet in 9x6 inch plain printed tomato-bisque wraps, an oddly attractive item in nearly-new condition. Tincture of opium, to be used in combination with lime-water and linseed oil, must have been easier to obtain in 1909.
