I bought a handful of these--hand-typed cards from the 1950s documenting railroad worker injuries, this one completed by the Signal Dept. Terminal Division, Boston I believe. Some are more elaborate than others, but each evokes a vivid story through its matter of fact reporting, and all feel like found poetry to me. Here, it is especially the double use of "wrench" that I love--our signalman Edward Clark having wrenched a knee while running for a wrench. (I really doubt the person typing this was cognizant of their particular choice of words, but part of me hopes they took great pleasure in the telling.) No time off was proscribed, but on the back of the card we learn that the pain persisted, with hot packs and exercise advised!

 6" x 4" and in good condition.
