So there isn't much else to say about the teeth I found. They are the plaster cast of Albert McCall, who tried to enlist in the army in 1906. For reasons unknown, he had a metal plate put in his lower jaw and a bunch of fake teeth. Since he could not "masticate meat except the choicest cuts" the army wouldn't take him. He tried to fight this decision and failed. That's pretty much it other than the fact that there are now better photos.
In news related to the archives and this blog, they've refurnished 203 west. Apparently, one day we will also have a reasonable amount of electrical outlets. This will mean that the floor will be ripped up since all of the useable outlets are currently in the floor. I can only wonder what the replacement floor will look like and if they will feel obligated to replace it with similar flooring.
