                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

The long, narrow end holds the drill bit used in dental procedures, and the metal surface shows patina and wear from use.</text>

                <text>An ivory syringe with a slender, cylindrical body is shown against a dark background. The instrument features a smooth, tapered shaft that narrows toward a rounded nozzle at one end, while the opposite end widens into a bulb-shaped plunger handle. Decorative turned rings appear around the midsection, and the polished ivory surface highlights the material’s pale color and fine craftsmanship. The simple, elongated form reflects its use as a handheld medical syringe.</text>

Two slender arms extend downward from a central pivot, while a third upright shaft rises above it, ending in a small, curved, textured pad. A similar curved pad appears at the lower end of the central shaft. The decorative turned detailing along the shafts and the aged metal surface suggest a historical surgical or medical device designed for controlled pressure or expansion.</text>
