Ahem. It is quite possible that someone was moving items around and set that puzzle down on the table and left it. For art therapy we very rarely ask our folks to assemble puzzles on old folded up examination tables, especially if they use wheelcahirs and can't quite get their chair positioned under the table . . . . .
What I find odd is assuming that everything is exactly in the same place and condition as it was when the area was in use.

Yes, that is exactly what it is. We put helmets on the kiddos and give them knee pads and padded gloves and let 'em rip - they have a great time and can really fly in those things. It's nice for folks who are not ambulatory to be able to get around independently. They explore, learn about their environment, increase their independence, and have a good time - all at once.

THOSE CHAIRS DATE BACK TO THE EARLY 1900's.

All that history sitting there - makes me depressed. They need to be archiving and preserving that stuff.

It's a standing walker. The doughnut goes around the person's waist and holds them up while they walk. Works better with 4 wheels, however . . .

I came close myself. Came in late because I was trying to get through these but had to stop after the first set. Now I am at work. I have to work an hour later so I can look at these without guilt. :-)

That's... disgusting. I can't think of me playing merry on an EXAMINATION TABLE! Woah, very odd...
