HISTORICAL ORNAMENTS  

In 2023, the AVMHS has produced a limited edition of 30 sets of five unique veterinary historical  ornaments showing the buildings of several early private veterinary colleges in the United States.

 

The illustrations are laser-etched on 3-inch x 1/8-inch wooden discs and come with a ribbon making them suitable for hanging and other display. A 2-page leaflet with a brief description of the college is included with the ornament.

 

Each set depicts the following colleges: 

  • Chicago Veterinary College (1883-1920)

  • Harvard Veterinary School (1882-1901)

  • Indiana Veterinary College (1899-1924)

  • Kansas City Veterinary College (1891-1918)

  • McKillip Veterinary College (1892-1920)

For more information about these and other early colleges, see Past Veterinary Colleges in the United States and Canada
