FURNEAUX, William (1855-1940) – artist, slide 14
The Lizars catalogue lists an additional slide, number 26 'Tuberculosis circulation', with later slides renumbered accordingly and the total 53.
It is possible that there was a separate set of the same title by Newton, made from the same source images, but it seems more likely that the set in the Newton catalogue is the York set.
The Salvation Army catalogue uses the title The human body: or the house we live in, and the 1894 Wood catalogue uses the title The house we live in: the body.
