Graphic three‐dimensional representations from serial sections *

A method is described whereby steric configurations and surface contours may be produced in schematic form from serial light or electron micrographs. The resultant illustration, similar to those used by cartographers, is easily prepared and obviates the necessity of publishing large numbers of half‐tone micrographs to substantiate the analysis.
