Description

Dr. Peter's Notebook has this memo, "1 head sawed in all directions ... 40 francs." This skull was included in the purchase of medical materials from Guy in Paris in 1839. One of the problems in preparing this exhibit can be illustrated by the skull. The separate pieces were found in at least six locations ranging from the basement of the Administration Building to the sub-basement and second floor of the Science Building. There is still a small piece under the ear missing.
