Patchwork Skin From 245 Friends Reveals Grim Tale

A San Francisco man, Phil J Redmond, wears 245 skin patches taken from friends who sacrificed theirs after a Pacific railroad accident in 1908. Redmond, once a fireman, survived with extensive scalds while his uncle Hyde perished. The patches cover limbs giving a ragged, patchwork appearance.
