EQUINE MEDICINE SCROLL
Manuscript scroll on paper entitled from the accompanying label "Uma shobyo miyo or kenyo no koto. Yakushin issai no ryoji" "Diagnoses of all the Horse Diseases. Grand Encyclopedia of Medicine and Needle Treatments"
30 black & white brush & ink drawings of diseased horses. Scroll 130 x 27630 mm. 94 joined sheets with several extension flaps which fold down with additional text recently & expertly backed. Omi Province today's Shiga Province: the most modern date we find in the scroll is 1809. A remarkably long scroll 90 feet; this is the most comprehensive old Japanese encyclopedia of horse diseases and their treatments we have encountered. The text includes recipes for medicines and acupuncture techniques as well as numerous case histories. There are references in this scroll to texts being copied in 1611. Each of the 94 sheets is numbered. It is obvious this was once a codex in at least two volumes that has been converted into an enormously long scroll. The accompanying title label was clearly the upper wrapper of the codex. At the beginning of this scroll are 30 brush & ink drawings of diseased horses representations of case histories adapted from the Inner Classic of the Yellow Emperor written about 2700 B.C. The case histories discuss rare diseases digestive problems drinking too much cold water kidney diseases heart problems lung problems wounds to the head diseases of the spleen parasitical worms breathing problems including asthma constipation cramping intestinal blocking food poisoning lack of appetite nervous horses brain diseases "black sweat" chills etc. Each case history concludes with pharmaceutical recipes. Sheets 51 to 94 contain sections on specific topics and include eye diseases tongue diagnosis diagnosis based on the condition of the tail setting of broken bones medicines to treat blood clots the six meridians the 18 meridians acupuncture treatments for tumors with a long list of pressure points and explanations of their relationships to tumors and other diseases etc. At the very end of this scroll we find the date "1809" with the name "Akatsu." In fine condition preserved in a box. unknown books

Many fine drawings some double-page some single-page a few heightened in wash of several colors. 47 folding leaves. Large 8vo 298 x 217 mm. orig. wrappers wrappers somewhat soiled new stitching. Japan: early to mid-Edo. A fine and well-illustrated equine medicine manuscript based on the traditional Chinese veterinary medical theories of the five organs liver heart spleen lung and kidney their seven related personality traits anger fear disgust happiness sadness surprise and contempt and eight elements of pulse condition at the six locations. There is also a substantial section on the use of moxibustion for treating the liver heart lung kidney and other organs. The illustrations are very striking. The first two depict a horse splayed on his back with moxibustion locations marked. These are followed by one image of a horse splayed on his stomach again with marked moxibustion points. Following this are three images of a horse lying on his side feet tied together with names and locations of pressure points. Next we encounter five images of various aspects of the five organs and their related pressure points with names. The final three images are side views of a horse with pressure points marked for acupuncture. There are instructions on how long the needles should be and how deeply inserted. The considerable text discusses the above-mentioned theories of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine. Very good condition. Our manuscript has worming touching both text and image but is entirely legible. unknown books

Popular Medicine. Almanacs. Thomson Samuel.
Thomson's Almanac for 1841 Adapted to all the United States and the Canadas. Containing a Variety of Interesting and Useful Matter in Relation to the Thomsonian System of Medical Practice.
Boston: Printed and Published for Dr. Samuel Thomson and for Sale at his Medicine Store 1840. First edition. A couple of small spots of damp-stain a bit roughly opened in a few spots with a small chip to the upper outer corner of the title page; a very good copy. Unbound stab-stitched pamphlet 8 x 4.5 inches 36 pages. Illus. An effective advertisement for the Thomsonian botanic system of medicine a well-established ongoing enterprise at this point with much in the way of pointed humorous verses in the voice of the humble lobelia anecdotes about the follies of allopathic physicians and a sort of backhanded defense of women as physicians: "Altho' woman may be inferior to us in mathematical political and military talents; we cannot deny that they possess superior capacity for the science of medicine; and although men should reserve to themselves the exclusive right to mend broken limbs and fractured skulls and to prescribe in all cases for their own sex they should give up to women the office of attending upon women." Among the ads for Thomson publications and warnings against imitators presumably James Osgood's Thomsonian Almanac one finds a nice job printing advertisement for S. R. Hart of Boston at the foot of the last page. With 12 fine humorous woodcut illustrations. Drake 4230. Printed and Published for Dr. Samuel Thomson, and for Sale at his Medicine Store, unknown books

This paper describes a 'daring' procedure wherein Cooper removed a 'slug of iron' from one B. T. Beal of Springfield Tuolumne County. Seems Mr Beal and a few friends "in a frolicksome mood resolved to burst an old gun and accordingly loaded it with about eighteen inches of powder to which they connected a slow match and then endeavored to seek security by flight." He failed. The 'slug of iron' entered Mr Beal below the left armpit and lodged under his heart 'upon the vertical column' where it remained for 74 days until Dr Cooper removed it. The patient recovered said improvement in health to such a degree "as not to be recognized by medical men present at the operation". No copies at auction these last 30 years per ABPC & Am Ex; we know of one copy sold a couple years ago through the trade. A rare item known as one of the earliest published accounts of a California surgical procedure. Whitton Towne & Co., Printers and Publishers unknown books
