Class photo of 1946 BVSc graduandi

Abstract

Photograph of the nine 1946 BVSc graduates with Dr JB Quinlan. In the photo is Maud Bales who was the second woman to successfully qualify as a veterinary surgeon in 1946 and embark on a short-lived veterinary career that was full of promise. Ill health however caught up with her and she sadly died on 16 December 1947, just a year after graduating. More information on each graduate can be read in Past veterinarians in South Africa / Posthumus, P.J.
