(MORTUARY SCIENCE). DODGE, A. Johnson. The Third Edition of the Practical Embalmer. (N.p.: A. Johnson Dodge, 1920) xxiii, [i], 259, [1] pp. (238 x 151 mm.) Third Edition.

With frontispiece portrait, three preliminary anatomical plates and text keys, 12 partially colored folding plates (lacking plate 7), and 17 black & white plates. Flyleaf with ownership signature of Martin W. Maloney. Light rubbing to corners and head and tail of spine, cloth with a couple small dings; front flyleaf with short tears through ownership signature, paper slightly toned and a few leaves with light foxing, several folding plates with light creases.

At a time when there was little regulation in the field, Dodge was instrumental in developing professional training for embalmers through schools and travelling instructors.
