Fig. 2. Label variations of Smith, Beck & Beck slides

introduced and sold from the later 1850s through the 1860s. Even though the company’s name
and address varied, the style of their pale~green labels remained largely unchanged.

Figs. 3A, 3B. Microphotographs of the fine injected vessels

made visible by the use of transparent injection techniques (in both cases using
transparent carmine). [Fig. 1 shows the gross slides: 3A is taken from the preparation of
