Description

Black and white photograph of a curious reddish (copper-coloured) growth on the back of a man aged 48 years of nine years duration, of uncertain nature, diagnosed microscopically by some as fibro-sarcoma, by others as merely inflammatory. It was removed by operation and six months later there had been no recurrence.
