Item description from seller

[HEALTH]. John Rawson Pennington (1858-1927). "Suggestions as to Causes of Low Percentages of Cures in Operations for Fistula in Ano, with, Piles Cured Without the Knife." s.l.; Grand Rapids, MI: n.p.; Drs. Burleson and Burleson, c.1911 and 1916. English language. Folded paper pamphlet printed black. With advertisement. Article copied from an October 1907 issues of the 'American Journal of Surgery,' with odd advisory texts appended to beginning and end of article pressuring the reader to believe their hemorrhoids can be cured 'without the knife.' This text was likely issued by Drs. Burleson and Burleson, given a similar refrain in an accompanying 2 pp. illustrated advertisement. 9 1/2 x 6 1/3 inches. 1 oz. 4 pp and 2 pp. Article is stamped on front wrapper with the number 2599 and the date NOV 28 1911. Fold-lines, creasing, wear, age, and a short tear in middle of spine repaired with Japanese tissue. Advertisement with fold lines, creasing, sticker residue, blue crayon, a dated stamp of DEC 20 1916 and a stamp of the Cramp American Medical Association in Chicago. Verso, an unrelated advertisement, has a blue crayon X written across it. Good. No ISBN. No ASIN. No OCLC.

Store description

I sell uncommon art catalogs, academic monographs, and prints, as well as rare ephemera such as posters and zines. I ship from Brooklyn, New York. I am an alum of the Rare Book School and the Colorado Antiquarian Book Seminar, as well as Indiana University and the Ohio State University. I started in the trade at the Wexner Center for the Arts bookstore, and I have previously worked for the Columbus Metropolitan Library, the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum, the Art Institute of Chicago's Department of Prints and Drawings, and the Indiana University Art Museum's center for Prints, Drawings, and Photographs. More recently, I was the rare book cataloger at Donald Heald Rare Books, for whom I worked the ABAA's New York International Antiquarian Book Fair.…
