Illustration cards are in very good clean bright condition. ** ‘These illustrations are not intended to replace laboratory work, but have been made expressly to help students to perform detailed dissections of their own. The illustrations have been made directly from particular specimens which were dissected for the purpose. Each illustration is therefore individual and not a generalised diagram which could be copied by students to fit their own dissections’. (from intro.).
