The Thin Man
Sequential Human Anatomy Program
Near life-size, full color rendition of the human body with transparent Mylar overlays representing five layers of tissue mounted on warp-proof composition board and supported by a tip-proof, four-legged, tubular steel frame.
- Near life-size, full-color rendition of the human body
- Transparent Mylar overlays represent five layers of tissue:
- First layer – 30 structures: Musculature of the head, neck, thorax and abdomen
- Second layer – 44 structures: Brain, glands, eye, teeth, lungs, liver, heart and major vessels, stomach and intestines
- Third layer – 59 structures: Sinuses, tongue, trachea, heart, spleen, pancreas and large intestine
- Fourth layer – 27 structures: Esophagus, pleura, aorta, inferior vena cava, autonomic nerve trunk, kidneys and adrenal glands
- Fifth layer (full figure) – 77 structures: Brain, pharynx, vertebral column, rib cage, muscles of upper and lower extremities, pelvic organs and muscles
- Shows three-dimensional spatial relationships of principal structures, major vessels and organ systems
- More than 200 anatomical features are named, indexed and keyed
- Rear depicts a full-figure view of the skeletal and nervous systems
- 63 inches (160 cm) tall
