Rare signed photograph of the 'Father of Modern Medicine'

Canadian-born physician and researcher (1849-1919) who was a founding professor of Johns Hopkins Hospital, widely regarded as the 'Father of Modern Medicine' for his pioneering work in medical assessment, diagnosis, and education. Vintage matte-finish 3.75 x 5.5 portrait of Osler in a seated pose by Mesny of Baltimore, affixed to its original 6.75 x 8.75 mount, signed on the mount in fountain pen, "Sincerely yours, Wm. Osler." Framed and in fine condition. Very rare in this format, this is just the second signed photo of Osler we have offered.
