    Original 1947 Peter Bachin Anatomical Charts, Nice Medical Vintage
    Up for your consideration are two vintage medical charts published by the Anatomical Chart Company of Chicago, Illinois.  These instructural aids were typically sold to medical institutions and healthcare professionals.
    The two charts, one of the skeletal system and the second of the muscular system, are completely original.  Both are copyright 1947 and drawn by medical artist Peter Bachin.  They each measure 25 1/2"(l) x 20"(w) and are constructed of heavy stock paper.  They are complete and intact, although the muscular chart is missing the metal hanging hook.  Both charts have some use and age-related yellowing, creasing, edge fraying, slight focal metal frame bending and staining.  It appears as if the muscular chart was taped on one side of the back to repair a tear, and currently there are two very small 1/2" tears in the left upper corner.  No other tears on either chart are noted.   A small nail hole is present at the top center of the muscular chart, presumably for hanging.  Despite the above blemishes, these 75 year-old charts are in remarkably good shape, are still quite usable and would look great framed.
    A wonderful addition to any vintage medical collection or as a gift to your favorite health care professional.  We will carefully roll up and pack these charts, shipping them to USA addresses only.  Please contact us if you have any questions or would like additional photos.  Check out our other fine vintage items for sale on EBay and at our Etsy site Midcenturygiftshop, and thank you for your consideration.
