This 1934 fifth edition of G. I. Turner's "Guide to Bandaging" is a classic practical manual from the early Soviet period, published by the specialized Leningrad State Medical Publishing House (Lenmedgiz). The book served as an essential instructional text for medical students, nurses, feldshers (physician assistants), and military medics, providing systematic knowledge on the techniques and principles of applying various types of bandages for injuries and wounds. Its practical importance was particularly high in the context of the 1930s, a period of rapid industrialization and growing emphasis on mass medical training. The illustrated paperback, with a print run of 5,200 copies, represents a typical example of utilitarian Soviet professional literature. As a historical document, it is of interest to collectors and historians of medicine, showcasing the state of pre-war surgical care and medical education.
