Dear colleague Doctor Absolon,
I have just been aware of two other works you
wrote sometime ago which interested me a lot, both printed
in Surgery. The Surgical School of Theodor Billroth and the
Surgical School of John Hunter, respectively in 50:697,1962
and 54:388, 1963.
Having read many articles on these masters and
eventhough having had the opportunity to visit the places where
they lived I would be very glad to receive your reprints on
these works for my personal collections.
Of course I will. be very thankful to you if you
will send me other works that I do not know of. Sure I do not
need to say that I will be very happy to be of any assistence
to you down here in Srasil for anything you might wish to have,
especially in this field of medical history.
Thanking you again, I am, with my best wishes,
Very sincerely yours,
L.H. Camara-Lopes,M.D.
