Wanted: the following medical textbook published on the given dates

 J. Moore Neligan:

Diseases of the skin,1860

Atlas of Cutaneous Diseases, 1859

LATER AMERICAN EDITION. "The book is a simple atlas for the student and the young doctor. According to Dann, this book was the first dermatological work to contain chromo-lithographs in 3 colours. The three colour plates used, red, greyish-blue and olive-yellow, can be discerned quite clearly. Dann goes on to tell us that Neligan was also the first to make use of a photographic technique to help produce the illustrations." - Ehring. J. Moore Neligan was a faculty member at the Dublin School of Medicine. Neligan was a follower of Willan and Bateman who made efforts at classification and contributed to the study of clinical dermatology. Neligan’s work was widely distributed throughout the English-speaking world and was influential in establishing dermatology as a discipline. DNB, XIV, pp. 187-188; Ehring, Hautkrankheiten, pp. 158-159; Pusey, History of dermatology, pp. 69, 86.
