This is an old Resusci Anne CPR Manikin circa 1970s.

HI Just discovered this site last week. They have groups that will take damaged and old wheelchairs, fix them. Then donate them to people who need them but can't pay for them.

Darlene you made me think of an argument that happened in my home town. A new high school was built about 4 years ago and there were various plans shown to the committee and the town voted on the choices. One man just kept writing to the newspaper, "just build it out of concrete block what do we need a fancy building for." Made me think about how we choose what buildings look like. Is it a waste of money to make them aesthetically pleasing? I don't think it is a waste, but some people might.

Believe it or not, but the resuscitation dummies that you are thinking of become outdated and unusable. The plastics degrade and the inner workings (some have baggies for the lungs) give up. So hopefully this was an OLD one and not a terrible waste.

The part that lists the mortician makes it easier for the mortician to find the body he is looking for. Mixing up bodies is a definite no-no.

I don't think this is an autopsy table. Only being able to get to one side would be a major problem for the Dr. But maybe some limited exams were done with this setup. And the assorted equipment on this wall mounted piece has other functions.

I also agree with iceberg.

What an adorable tiny lighthouse.....or is it just the angle that makes it so?

Aint gonna be pretty when all those AC units start falling out, not in sound at least

First a lone chair and now a lone wheelchair? These places always get something strange left behind and in good condition too

"I have fallen and I choose NOT to get back up!" Guess they took the rest of the body with them when the place got cleaned out

Well least it isn't a used toe tag

Okay, I take my previous comment back O.O That better be coffee like everyone else thinks

Well least it is clean. It'd be rather horrifying if there was any kind of residue left from the embalming procedures on it
