If any of you were present at the last annual meeting of the Massachusetts Dental Society held in the Meionaon of Tremont Temple last December, you can not fail to remember the extensive series of magnificent photographs of microscopic appearances which Prof. Hitchcock had himself prepared from his own investigations and observations in Histology.   — pages 20-21.

Another pose of Hitchcock, presumably one from the same photographic session as the image used for the book, can be found in Harvard School of Dental Medicine Photographs, ca. 1868-1969 which is archived at Francis A. Countway Library of Medicine, Boston.
