Gelatin silver print, cropped
Private collection of Jim Matthews
An article on 27 March 1914 in the Evening times Republican, Marshalltown, Iowa entitled "J. E. Palmer Loses Leg." describes the amputation.
 
The newspaper advertisement for Burch Bros. Co. beneath the leg was published in 14 May 1914, Evening times Republican, Marshalltown, Iowa.
 
I'm indebted to Rebecca Stearns for providing this information (23 May 2019).
