Scope and ContentTwo of the illustrations are marked "BJS Patey", and were likely published in one of the several articles that Gordon-Taylor co-authored with surgeon DH Patey in the British Journal of Surgery. The other nineteen illustrations have some reprographics markings and annotations, but no further details related to their publication.
Illustrations with annotations by Gordon-Taylor include:
Drawing showing a gunshot wound to the left kidney and pancreas, annotated "White rod indicates the narrow track of a shell fragment which entered the left loin, traversed the kidney and lodged in the pancreas where it is enclosed in an abscess cavity."
Drawing showing "a small perforating wound of the caecum indicated by a green rod; there is extensive haemorrhagic infiltration of bowel-wall."
Drawing showing "Gunshot wound of caecum viewed from behind. There is extensive haemorrhagic infiltration of the bowel wall. Fragment of HE lodged in bowel wall."
Drawing showing "sub-peritoneal angiomata of intestinal tract"
Drawing showing "transverse section of thoraco-abdominal region below level of pleural cul-de-sac, showing organs liable to damage in penetrating wound."
Two photographs in metal frames showing surgical procedure, captioned "Deposit of fibrin on lung surface", and "exudate removed: lung expanded."
The illustrations are arranged in two folders: (1 of 2) and (2 of 2).
