Prima edizione
First edition. A scarce and somewhat grisly early 20th century guide for the embalmer. The title continues "a recitation of actual experiences of the author and hundreds of the most expert embalmers of the world." And, after a brief overview of the practice, the book reads like a "believe it or not" with plates and descriptions of various disfigurements and maladies from gangrene and leprosy to syphilis and physical deformity. OCLC cites holdings only at the Library of Congress, University of Chicago, and Free Library of Philadelphia. 8vo, 302pp. Photos, plates, illustrations, diagrams. Publisher's dark cloth stamped in gilt. Some rubbing to corners and spine ends. Large plate from B.L. Wrench, funeral director to ffep. Few marginal smudges to prelims, else clean internally and nearly fine.
