Photographic Illustrations of Skin Diseases. By George Henry Fox. With 48 hand-colored autotype plates of subjects with skin conditions. 4to, 1/2 calf with marbled boards, joints split, corners worn; hinges cracked, light dampstaining at lower margin of preliminaries; plates crisp and clean. first edition. New York, 1880
Note that the tryptych (depicting the man with Sarcoma Pigmentosum) does not have a fig leaf covering his genitals, as is typically seen in other examples of the first edition. One assumes that Fox decided it was too revealing and inserted the fig leaf before many copies had been printed.
