When the Erskine Hospital opened in 1916 to care for the many soldiers and sailors injured in the First World War, the sheer number of amputees meant there was a shortage of prosthetic limbs. </p><p>Cont./</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgowhistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgowhistory</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/wwi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wwi</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/shipyards" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>shipyards</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/clydebuilt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>clydebuilt</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/erskinehospital" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>erskinehospital</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/hunterianmuseum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hunterianmuseum</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgowuniversity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgowuniversity</span></a></p>
