FREDERICK HOLLICK (1818-1900) Outlines of anatomy & physiology : illustrated by a new dissected plate of the human organization. T.B. Peterson 1846 [16], 40 p., [1] leaf of plates : ill. (1 col.), port. 29 cm.

Hollick was an American physician in the mid-19th century whose published works largely focused on sex education, making him an incredibly controversial practitioner of the time. He travelled and gave lectures on the sexual organs. This particular publication is a more general overview of internal human anatomy featuring illustrations with flaps the reader can move to see organs as they would be organized in an actual body.
