PALMER'S PATENT ARTIFICIAL LEG ! MANUFACTURED BY MESSRS. PALMER & CO . , At 5 Burt's Block, Springfield, Mass,, and 376 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, Pa.
THIS Artificial Leg is conceded to be the best that is made in America or Europe; constructed on strict- ly anatomical principles ; the least distinguishable from the natural limb, and the most useful, durable, and economical.
The United Service (Military) Gazette, London, says, "Every other kind is dear at any price, and their substitution for the human limb the greatest part of the catastrophe." This limb in every in- stance of competition with every other kind, has re- ceived the highest premiums from all the Institutes in the United States for the promotion of science and the arts, to wit :- Twenty Gold and Silver Medals and Diplomas. At the World's Fair, at London, 1851, in competition with thirty other varieties, (the best of London and Paris artists,) it received the PRIZE MEDAL, as eminently the best. It is now worn by nearly eight hundred persons, with pleasurable satisfaction. It has the unqualified approbation of all the principal Surgeons in Europe and America, who may be consulted by those in want of Artificial Legs.
