1900's pamphlet advertising Dr Henry Smith Williams Everyday Science
This pamphlet is dated some where between 1904 and 1915.
It is a advertising for the book series Everyday science. In the pamphlet it says: The work as a whole is just coming from the press. The first five volumes, however---reproduced here from the original plates were published by Harper & Brothers in 1904 under Titel "History of Science" and have already gained a secure place among standard works. The remaining volumes to which Dr. Williams has given five additional years of uninterrupted investigation-- are still in the hands of the printer and binder, and so of curse have not been reviewed.
I do not know the completeness of this pamphlet, but I do know at one time it folded out but now has separated some parts together, some not. Only a expert in these matters would know.
There are 15 pages 2 with written words and 13 pictures of Science. Not all pictures are shown a couple you see in the picture are folded parts.
Some of the pictures included:
The Moabite Stone
Robert Fulton
Professor Rudolf Virchow in his laboratory
The results of erosion by running water
Laennec inventor of the stethoscope at the necker hospital in Paris
The Aquarium of the Marine Biological Laboratory
Thomas a Edison and the Dynamo that Generated the first commercial Electrical Light
There are Quite a few more I can jot down later.
