F. PARKES WEBER: DEATH AND NUMISMATICS?

Last week I asked about the following 1956 book by
F. Parkes Weber: "Interesting Cases and Pathological
Considerations and a Numismatic Suggestion".

Gar Travis writes: "The author also wrote "Aspects of death and
their effects on the living : as illustrated by minor works of art,
especially medals, engraved gems, jewels, &c., published by
The Open Court Publishing Company, Chicago, 1910, 160 pp.
8vo."

[This is certainly interesting - two books 46 years apart?
I was not aware of any catalog of medals with designs relating
to death. Has anyone seen this book before, either?
