My father bought me this charming book for 20p, it is a 1924 medical book about the diseases of women, full of beautifully hand coloured plates showing pus ridden vaginas and burst wombs, some selected delights under the cut.
Warning, dead foetus under cut.
please forgive my dirty fingernails in the pics, i'd just been gardening!
