 | Atlas of Topographical and Applied Human Anatomy, Volume One, Head and Neck (Volume 1) by Harry Monsen (Translator) Eduard PernKopf (Author)
Buy used from: $299.98 Pernkopf is very hard to find, a two volume series in which the 1963-1964 publication years are best. Very lovely, and a wonderful reference. Usually expensive.

 | Atlas of Topographical and Applied Human Anatomy Volume II: Thorax, Abdomen and Extremities by Eduard Pernkopf
Pernkopf is very hard to find, a two volume series in which the 1963-1964 publication years are best. Very lovely, and a wonderful reference.

| HAND ATLAS OF HUMAN ANATOMY ( Three Volume Set ) by Werner Spalteholz
Buy used from: $50.00 A great illustrated text, best from the early 1900's (my set is from 1902). His anatomical information is very good as well, if you can wade through less than perfectly translated German. The early edition artwork is well worth it.
|
 | Atlas of Human Anatomy: With Netteranatomy.com (Netter Basic Science) by Frank H. Netter MD
Buy new: $64.75 / Used from: $55.00 A more modern text that has wonderful medical information for reference, as well as excellent illustrations.
|
 | Nervous System, Part 1: Anatomy and Physiology (Ciba Collection of Medical Illustrations, Volume 1) by Frank Henry Netter
Buy used from: $31.28 First volume of an eight volume set. A better representation of exactly how talented Frank Netter is.
|
 | Anatomy: A Regional Atlas of the Human Body (ANATOMY, REGIONAL ATLAS OF THE HUMAN BODY (CLEMENTE)) by Carmine D Clemente
Buy new: $60.70 / Used from: $29.99 A great study tool if you have an anatomy class. Contemporary with Netter.
|
| Atlas of Human Anatomy by Barry J Anson
Buy used from: $20.00 From the 1950's, another excellent artist
|
 | Color Atlas of Anatomy: A Photographic Study of the Human Body (Color Atlas of Anatomy (Rohen)) by Johannes W Rohen
Buy new: $64.90 / Used from: $45.50 Sometimes, you just have to see a picture of what the anatomy really looks like. This one has excellent photographs.
|
| A Manual of Surgical Anatomy Prepared Under the Auspices of the Committee on Surgery of the Div. of Medical Sciences by Tom (W.C. Shepard) Jones
Buy used from: $3.99 A nice concise volume, done with military field surgery in mind. From the late 1890's or early 1900's.
|
| Operative gynecology by Howard A Kelly
While this may not seem useful to the average illustrator (unless this field peaks your interest), the quality of the illustrations alone make it worth adding to your shelf. As well as the quality of the printing. Two volume set, from 1899.
|
 | Melloni's Illustrated Medical Dictionary, Fourth Edition
Buy new: $87.36 / Used from: $21.22 A good text with slight simple illustrations, but highly useful when looking up the correct spelling or terminology of something. Well organized.
|
 | Gray's Anatomy: The Classic Collector's Edition by Henry Gray
Buy used from: $0.01 Both this edition and the more expensive textbook are nice. This edition is best if you can actually find an older British version. The text explanations are very good (better than the accuracy of the illustrations in the older editions - I can't be sure of the newer ones).
|
 | Artistic Anatomy (Practical Art Books) by Dr. Paul Richer
Buy new: $16.47 / Used from: $10.98 Recommended to me
|
 | Anatomy For The Artist by Jeno Barcsay
Buy used from: $14.96 A great book for seeing examples on drawing techniques or positions. Not the most accurate (but then, most 'anatomy for artists' type books are more beautiful than accurate).
