Utrecht goitre (Utrechtse Krop) is the title of a collection of photographs by Paul Kooiker. The book includes images of the file Utrecht University Hospital, some of them around 1890.
“Utrechtse Krop” (Utrecht goitre) was the name given to a thyroid condition once common in the Dutch town of Utrecht, due to a deficiency of iodine in drinking water.

:( Kind of feel bad.
Where the fuck is the water? Shouldn’t it be spilling over the ledge?
I put this on tumblr once before, but it didn’t get much reception. I’m trying again.
Post Mortem photography. Enjoy guys. :D
