SUMMARY
Peer-reviewed medical-history article read to the Section of Historical and Cultural Medicine of the New York Academy of Medicine on 13 January 1937. Citation metadata (author, journal, year, volume, issue, pages, PMID, PMCID) copied verbatim from the NCBI E-utilities esummary response (db=pmc, id=1966065) on 2026-06-03, which returned title 'Count Cagliostro-An Excursion Into Eighteenth Century Charlatanism.', source 'Bull N Y Acad Med', pubdate '1937 Aug', volume 13, issue 8, pages 466-88, author 'Lathrope GH', PMID 19312029. The PMC copy is a scanned page-image whose text is not machine-extractable, so this entry anchors the medical-history framing of Cagliostro as a charlatan rather than any quoted passage.
NOTES

This 1937 Bulletin of the New York Academy of Medicine article is the bundle’s peer-reviewed medical-history anchor for treating Cagliostro within the history of charlatanism. It is cited for the framing and for confirming Cagliostro’s place in the medical-history literature, not for any verbatim passage, because the digitized copy is a page-image scan.
