For this picture the patient put his leg upon a chair and 

 exposed his foot, with the shoe on, to the ^:-ray. The 

 above ^-ray photograph (skiagraph) was the result. You 

 can see plainly the nails in the sole of the shoe and the 

 steel shank as well as the bones of the foot. Between 

 die toes two or three of the shoe buttons show. A lead 

 pencil stuck in the chair seat is also visible.
