Whew! Marcia you must be tired keeping up with the discussions for eight years! Kudos to you. Thank you for explaining! (Several times mind you). It is truly interesting to see/read personal involvement in the Mr. Mott photo galleries. I am thoroughly enjoying the photo viewing session I've put myself through today.

These could be old x-rays. The uppermost one has the typical rounded corners of the old films that were hand-processed. Also, old x-rays do smell like vinegar.

I love it when you photograph old x-ray machines. I worked on a similar machine when I was in training in the late 1970's.

That IS an old fluoroscopy machine. Not "dangerous" unless activated by (hopefully) a registered technologist. Can safely be taken apart (as long as it is unplugged) because it does not have a radiation source. This is a diagnostic x-ray machine not a radiation therapy machine. Drs and techs alike received high doses just from working in the exam rooms from scatter radiation (like I did in the 1980"s) --- although this machine is older.
