Some of the articles are tinged with humor toward the hospital's employees from poetry on the perils of working as a nurse in a hospital for the insane to running an ad for a wife for an official of the hospital.

The Alabama Insane Hospital was conceived under the influence of Dorothea Dix instrumental in the selection of Dr. Peter Bryce as its first superintendent in 1860 and Thomas Story Kirkbride its architect. Bryce 1834-1892 who had studied progressive ideas of treating the insane in Europe would head the institution until his death. The perennially underfunded hospital would prove self sufficient employing the patients to provide food heat and this newspaper both the editorial work and the printing process among other services reflecting the progressive belief of the time that activity settled the mind. Bryce and the hospital became known for innovative treatment of the mentally ill using a "therapeutic approach to treatment so called for its supposed ability to lead patients to an understanding and acceptance of 'right behavior'." The hospital accepted African-American patients including one who had been owned by Dr. Bryce but despite its progressive reputation in treatment the hospital showed the prejudices of the time by separating the patients by race. <br/><br/> Alabama Insane Hospital unknown books

16863Jewish Medical History Nurse with a Star of David on her cap peers into a microscope. 1935. Original silver gelatin print photograph. 7 x 5 in. Date handwritten in ink bottom right corner image verso "Sept. 1935". At the start of the Great Depression having skilled nurses was ever more important as malnutrition overcrowding poor sanitation and other side effects of extreme poverty caused by the sudden economic decline took an enormous toll on human health. Additionally Jewish emigration from Europe to the U.S. increased sharply in the 1930s with the rise of the Nazi Party so having compassionate culturally-sensitive medical care would be important for the growing Jewish population in America. Two light brown stains in lower center quadrant of image and 3 light stains along right edge. Good condition. unknown books
44211<p>Japan and Western Medicine. Oranda jin Geka ryoji no zu Dutch Surgery in Nagasaki. Original pen ink and watercolor drawing on light brown-toned silk with 4 vertical lines of Japanese characters in the upper left corner. Japan: late 18th or early 19th century. 483 x 363 mm. mounted as a scroll at a modern date on light grey silk backed with paper with a half-round hanging rail with braided ribbon attached at the top and a suspension bar at the foot measuring 914 x 443 mm. overall; preserved in a custom-made wooden box. A few tiny pinholes in upper corners of image but fine with the coloring fresh and bright.</p> <p> This striking image showing an amputation carried out by a Dutch surgeon in Japan was most likely painted in the late eighteenth or early nineteenth century during Japan's self-imposed period of national isolation. The hand-painted image is related but by no means identical to a Nagasaki woodblock print titled "Surgery by a Dutch Physician" one of many popular souvenir prints depicting scenes unique to Nagasaki which at the time was the sole point of contact between Japan and the outside world. See our reproduction of the print. It may be that our scroll is the original of the image; however it is also possible that both hand-painted and woodcut versions of the image were produced simultaneously.</p> <p> Western surgery came to Japan in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries via the Portuguese who in 1543 became the first Europeans to make direct contact with Japan and the Dutch who became the only European nation allowed to trade with Japan after Japan's expulsion of the Portuguese in 1639. Surgeons attached to the Dutch East India Company established practices at the island of Dejima in Nagasaki Bay which led to the formation of several Japanese schools of surgery based on European methods. "This aspect of Western medicine known as K m -ry geka or ‘Surgery of the Red-Haired' has had a profound effect on the development of surgical practice in Japan" Van Gulik p. 37.
