Re: 1857 Medical Lecture Ambrotype!!!!!!
Looks like the lecture leans heavily toward phrenology. There's a prominent illustration of the phrenological organs in the brain just above the lecturer, possibly another model on the table, and you can read the letters PHRENOLO on the table.
Can anyone figure out what the writing on the larger banner on the table says?

As [one of our cavalry] passed by, the general halted him and inquired "what part of the army he belonged to." "I don't belong to the army, I belong to the cavalry." "That's a fact," says [the general], "you can pass on." Silas Grisamore, 18th LouisianaComment

Re: 1857 Medical Lecture Ambrotype!!!!!!
The lecturer reminds me of John Carradine.
I may well be wrong, but the lettering looks like it is attached to the table cloth/skirt and that it might have become bunched up when the doctor set up his display pieces. A guess is that the words are "THIS EVENING".[I][/I]Die Gedanken sind frei
