I have since acquired the 1972 edition in good shape, but there was a 1959 edition. That would be a good one to have in the library.

A couple of pages are loose and the spine is a bit frayed. What a great book!!

I was fortunate to be able to purloin a pristine (no stain spills) copy of the third edition (1972) from the wreckage of an old histology lab about 20 years ago. Indeed, Patsy Ruegg!
