Human Skeleton

All of the realism of an actual skeleton has been captured in the process used to mould these durable and functional teaching aids. An ideal skeleton was selected and used in preparing the production mould for the skeleton materials, and the bones carefully cast to preserve even the finest details. The characteristics of natural bone have been so faithfully duplicated that it would take chemical analysis to distinguish these materials from natural bone. Skeleton is mounted in an upright position in a nonrusting stand with base and rollers. Each bone is cast individually in natural colour with all details of anatomy represented. Wherever possible, there is natural movement in the joints. Legs and arms are removable as well as the skull. Mandible hinged with springs, calvarium sectioned to permit study of the cranial vault. The skull has a full set of teeth.   This reproduction of a natural skeleton is made of special plastic which does not deteriorate with age and which is unbreakable. It can be easily washed with soap and water for years of continuous use. Provided with dustcover. Full human size.

Item number SB02011M from Nasco. See record number 2019 for a more advanced skeleton model.   See also record numbers 1965 and 1966 for two other human anatomy kits.
