Scarificator and Photograph

View collection description [PDF] >
 
The scarificator was given to Mrs. Leymaster's husband, Glen Leymaster, who was dean and president ofWMCIMCP from 1964-1970, by an alum sometime in the 1960s. The instrument has ten small blades that eject from the bottom of the tool for blood-letting purposes. This instrument was widely used in the 19th century and was advertised in catalogs as late as 1915. It is unclear if the case is original since it does not fit the device properly.

The photograph of the quilt panel reads, "Quaker Women Pioneers in Medicine/Female Medical College of Pennyslvania/ founded with the aid and support of prominent male citizens/first graduating class - Dec. 1851/ Ann Preston/Involved in Woman's Rights Movements/first woman professor-dean /Woman's Medical College/founder of Woman's Hospital Philadelphia / Originated/ nurses' training courses/author of children's rhymed stories / Hannah Longshore / First woman doctor/ to open private practice/ in Penna. / demonstrator in anatomy classes / Equality / New West/ Grove Meeting/All Welcome/Ann Preston/1813-1872"
