A Hand

A Hand

This hand was probably from a human body model, although I don't remember seeing the rest of it. There were smaller wooden models that showed different body functions and processes also.

it actually looks like it might be half of a mold for making a "model hand"

if u look at the inside of the hand, it's actually a mold for one of those plaster skeletons.

actually i beleive that is a medical modle its self, judging from the poles coming out of the bottom, it would have been mounted on a wooden base and have the skeletal structure inside of it as well as a removable layer of musculature and the top layer of skin. so in other words, we're all right

If I was to walk into an abandoned building and see this, the only thing you would see that proved I was there would be a urine trail leading to the exit!

It's actually more creepy because it isn't a whole hand.
