I have a REAL post coming, but in the meantime for those of you like like a little gore with your breakfast....I present:
A really disturbing slideshow
For some reason, the small pox picture is the one that made me cringe the most. Maybe because it used to be so common and it's a concrete example of what we have gained by living in the modern century?
I work as a photographer for a rare book company and get to photograph some of the books these photos/drawings were first published in...pretty amazing (and gross) stuff, but fascinating all the same. If you ever find yourself in Philadelphia, you HAVE to take a trip to the Mutter Museum (it's a museum of medial oddities!)
ReplyDeleteOMG, so gross. Loved it. Ew.
