Dear OandP listserve members,

I am looking for an E-Z-Fit artificial limb advertisement and/or pamphlet from the World War I era. E-Z-Fit legs were some of most prevalent *temporary* limbs issued by the U.S. Surgeon General's Office during the Great War for lower extremity amputee soldiers. The company's president was Albert G. Follett and his business was located on 42nd St. in New York City.

If you have any information pertaining to E-Z-Fit Artificial Limb Company, I would greatly appreciate it if you could email me at <Email Address Redacted>
