More Mirror Madness
Here’s a head mirror scene that’s almost right. The doctor is wearing the mirror over one eye, instead of in the middle, but the hole in the center of the mirror should be over his eye, not his forehead.
He also appears to be an ENT (Ears, Nose, Throat) doctor as vocal cords fall under their specialty, and ENTs are the doctors who use head mirrors the most.
Of course, while he appears to be looking in her mouth, there’s no way he’d be able to see her vocal cords like that. The cords are found in the neck-portion of the throat and you need special equipment (like the laryngeal mirror, below left) to be able to see them.
Still, a good try.
From Action Comics #159, where the plot centers on the fact that Superman has to do whatever Lois tells him to do — but then she gets laryngitis, so she can’t tell him anything.
