Picture labelled as: "In 1909, Dr. G.V. Black (Lt) visited Dr. F. McKay (Rt) in Colorado Springs to investigate the Colorado brown stain phenomenon.

Dr. McKay’s 1931 discovery that a high level of fluoride in the drinking water of the Colorado Springs area was causing brown stains, and resistance to tooth decay of tooth enamel among the native inhabitants, led to the modern fluoridation process."
