Human Anatomy and its History in the Reflection of Philocarty and Philately

This article presents the results of a study devoted to the reflection of information on the history of anatomy in philocard and philately. As illustrative materials, postal and art cards (philocation), postage stamps, blocks and envelopes (philately) are presented, to which the accompanying information is given. Due to the fact that the reflection of anatomy, as a medical science, its heroes, and its history on postage and art cards is very rare, the criterion for selection was to find all possible and available copies devoted to anatomy and its history on professional websites of collectors of philatelic and philocartistic materials. Many of the postal and art cards, where possible, are presented on both sides, obverse and reverse, which confirms the authenticity of the copies presented. All of the illustrative materials in the article, presented as screenshots, are properly referenced, in order to respect all copyrights, with the obligatory indication of where they were taken from. Almost all illustrative materials and references to historical data and events presented are taken, with the active use of Internet resources.
