Tuberculosis: its dangers, how it is spread, its allies and enemies, and precautions to be taken against it. Colour lithograph with vignettes by A. Rapeño, ca. 1918.

A challenge : Bisolvon meets, at mucous gland level, the challenge of the thick, tenacious, non-purulent sputum so characteristic of the chronic bronchitic.

A patient wonders where he should 'cough up' (his spittle); the doctor responds that if he means money, then into his hand. Process print after J-A. Faivre, 1902.
