Measures 9 1/4" x 5 3/4" The Chicago Post Graduate Medical School was founded by Dr. Franklin H. Martin (1857-1935) in 1889. There is little information to be found on the school, except for web sites which detail Martin's biography and his founding of the American College of Surgeons. It is unclear if the Chicago Post Graduate Medical School remained a separate entity or eventually came to be a part of the American College of Surgeons.
