Description
Kalaupapa, Hawaii; London: New Sydenham Society, 1903. ONLY EDITION. I: Fifty-two silver gelatin photographs mounted on twenty-six stiff paper boards. Gift inscription on the front pastedown “To Dr. Dudley, Compliments of Dr. J.T. Wayson M.D.”. Ownership inscription on the same pastedown “Dr. Wayson made these photos especially for me. W.H.D.” Original blind-decorated black buckram. An astounding, unique piece. II: With 22 plates (4 in color). Modern cloth, title in gilt on cover; an excellent copy. I: A morbid gift from Dr. James T. Wayson to Dr. William Howard Dudley, this photo album chronicles the effects and treatment of lepers at the Kalaupapa Colony. In 1865, laws went into effect to allow the arrest and removal of those diagnosed with leprosy in order to stifle the spread of the disease, for which there was no known cure. Agents were appointed to search for lepers and bring them to isolation camps like Kalaupapa for the rest of their lives. Kalaupapa began receiving patients in 1866 and continued until the isolation laws were lifted in 1969. Most of the patients living in the colony chose to stay, though, and some are still there today. Wayson was in charge of the receiving station for the exiled lepers in Honolulu. The colony also served as an experimental ward for treatment of different kinds of leprosy, and the physicians stationed there published their findings in medical journals. Some of the photographs in this album were reproduced in those periodicals. The photographs document lesions and sores on the patients’ bodies as well as surgical wounds and amputations. Of the men and women in the photographs, only the non-native Hawaiians are labeled in any way: four “Chinamen” and one “German”. Dr. Dudley was a prominent physician in Michigan in the early 20th century until 1928 when he was arrested on suspicion of performing an illegal abortion resulting in the death of the woman. He was found not guilty at trial. II: The leprosy portion of Fascicle 18 of the New Sydenham Society’s Atlas on clinical medicine, surgery and pathology. The introductory statements describe the most up to date maladies of the disease as noted by numerous observers and authors. Each of the artistic plates has a corresponding explanatory text. According to Meynell ,this work is the continuation of Hutchinson’s Atlas, however, it is not noted by Garrison & Morton, Heirs, Ehring, Richter, Shelley, Pusey or Goldschmid.
