Caution:
The instruments shown in the 1870-80's catalogues
are not only those from the Civil War. Later
versions and variations are obviously shown, so you
have to be careful what you call 'Civil War' when
using this catalogue. I have posted selected pages
which show names and drawings of instruments very
similar to those found in Civil War surgery sets.
It also gives you the correct names for the
instruments.
