Wood engraving and letterpress. Sheet 160 x 110mm (6¼ x 4¼"). Laid on album paper.
In 1834, when the poet's crypt was re-opened to place the remains of Jean Armour, his widow, a cast was made of Robert Burns's skull by local phrenologists. The cast was sent to the Committee of the Phrenological Society of Edinburgh under George Combe, who performed a 'blind' study.
