"Identification anthropométrique : instructions signalétiques" (1893) by Alphonse Bertillon is a manual of anthropometric identification. The book is a visual guide to the Bertillon system, which uses body measurements to identify individuals. The illustrations in the book depict the different body measurements that were used in the system, including the height, width, and length of various body parts. The Bertillon system was widely used in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and was an important precursor to modern methods of criminal identification.
