Contains 14 “illustrations in the text”. Overall good condition. Both volumes have solid, square bindings; clean, undamaged board surfaces; gilt on spines is clear and bright except for “APPLETON” at the bottoms; some wear and small bumps at corners and tops and bottoms of spines. Interiors are free of writing and odor, with no discoloration aside from some on the insides of boards and first/last free endpapers. No chips or tears on any pages of volume 3; volume 2 has a 3-inch tear at the bottom of the half-title page, and there is a large, puzzling piece missing from pp. 419-420; this may be the result of a manufacturing mishap, as the pages on either side show abnormal wrinkling. This is a handsome pair of books surveying the state of U.S. medicine from 115 years ago.
