- New Haven: Stanley & Chapin, Printers, 1841
New Haven: Stanley & Chapin, Printers, 1841. Original printed wrappers, with a woodcut view of the medical school building [repeated on the title page]. Stitched. 7, [1 blank] pp. 'Duplicate' rubberstamp on blank portion of front wrapper, plain rear wrapper addressed to Dr. Simeon Shurtleff of Simsbury. Light spotting and wear, Good+.
The faculty included Benjamin Silliman as professor of chemistry. The course of study, including dissections, is explained, with fees, degrees awarded, the library, donors, and access to the Connecticut hospital "to witness the surgical operations."
Dr. Shurtleff, the addressee of this scarce Circular, was evidently an avid collector. In the 1860s Wesleyan University purchased his Shurtleff Cabinet, consisting of thousands of species and specimens of birds, shells, and coins.
AI 41-5657 [2- Huntington, Harvard]. Sabin 105910 [1839-1840 Circular]. OCLC 81183679 [1- Huntington] [as of November 2012].
