Acquisition note
Nos.1-2 purchased from C.G. Griffenfoote, Cambridge, January 1928. No.3 transferred to the Library from Wellcome Historical Medical Museum, c.1939 (acc.91800); it carries the original accession number 24665, which indicates that it was purchased from E.E.S. in September 1910, but this is apparently an error as the accession register description for that number relates to a different item.
