Summary
A large wall chart made from heavy-duty green plastic, printed in yellow, attached to wooden battens at the top and bottom. Both sides have anatomical diagrams - on one side the human skeleton and the digestive system, on the other the blood circulation, the heart and the lungs. There are some coloured chalk markings on the diagrams which may account for their dusty condition. Both battens are cylindrical in shape, spliced in half through their length with the chart inserted in the gap. A hanging cord is attached in the same way to the top batten, as are two lengths of tape, which presumably are to be used to secure the chart when rolled up.
Marks and inscriptions
On the top batten: 'TVA 'SWAINS' . CRANE MEAD . WARE . HERTFORDSHIRE'
