Dr. Fowler consulted with another Brooklyn physician, Dr. Thomas Rushmore French, a specialist in diseases of the ear, nose, throat. The two in-text halftones of the larynx were supplied by Dr. French, who was an accomplished photographer and the first to capture serviceable images of the larynx (GM 3290-1).
