Important Medical Works by Andreas Vesalius

In 1973, Sandra purchased four anatomical woodcuts from a dealer in London. These had been removed from an early edition of Vesalius's de Humani Corporis Fabrica. This led to learning more about this early sixteen century anatomist. After emigrating to the USA as a Professor of Surgery, the collection of early anatomical books began with purchases from auction houses and well-established rare book dealers in the USA, Europe and the United Kingdom. This monograph is part of a much larger collection of Joffe's medical and particularly illustrated anatomical books from the 15th to 18th century.
