Vintage anatomical rubber display school model scientific exhibit. English, circa 1950s. Size: length: 10.5 inches; depth: 4.25 inches; height: 2 inches. Weight: 702g (allow up to 2 kg volumetric weight once packed). A bit about the item: "The object in your second image is a vintage anatomical teaching model, most likely of a tapeworm (cestode) or a parasitic flatworm, showing a cross-section of its body structure. These models were commonly used in schools and universities, particularly in the mid-20th century, to teach parasitology, biology, or zoology. Features that identify it: • The segmented body (indicated by the reddish central section) represents the proglottids of a tapeworm. • The numbered sections correspond to different anatomical parts such as: • Outer tegument • Muscle layers • Reproductive structures • Digestive or excretory canals (in species that have such structures) • The color-coding and exaggerated detailing are typical of anatomical models meant for visual teaching. Likely Origin: • Often made in Germany, Czechoslovakia, or France by makers like Somso, Rudiger Anatomie, or Philipp Harris" Reasonable vintage condition.
