Number 229

Number 230
Leg for amputation below the knee, without knee joints or thigh support. This style of leg is hardly suitable for stumps less than six inches in length. With a sound stump of sufficient length it may be worn with much satisfaction, as it is about one-third lighter than one with the knee joints and thigh band, and the wearer experiences much less restraint in its use, both in walking and sitting. It is, however, not recommended if the stump is sore or sensitive, as the entire pressure or bearing must be taken on the stump, with no provision for relieving it as with the leg with thigh band. No. 230 shows the leg with new foot, with rigid ankle No. 267, and adjustable leather lacing socket. A wooden socket with the same foot will be used if desired. Price, complete, $45, warranted for one year; $55, three years; $65, five years. If this leg is purchased, and it subsequently proves unsatisfactory, knee joints and thigh bands will be put on for $10.
Number 231
Leg for amputation below the knee, without knee joints or thigh support, wooden foot, ankle joint No. 216, 217 or 218, and wooden socket, or adjustable leather lacing socket if desired. Price, complete, $45, warranted for one year; $55, three years; $65, five years. Any time after leg is finished joints and thigh band will be put on for $10.
