Belated Christmas Wishes!

Med students have always been a jaunty, jaundiced bunch, even at the turn of the century (19th/20th, that is). From the Dittrick Medical History Center at Case Western Reserve University in beautiful Cleveland, OH, comes Haunting Images, an online exhibit of "Photography, Dissection, and Medical Students". Here are century old images, culled from a collection numbering about 200, featuring students dissecting cadavers, posing with them in group shots, or just clowning around. Interesting, if gruesome, stuff.
