Reminds me of a shot of the Titanic at the bottom of the ocean (only of course it isn't), or maybe a photo of a cubbard BEFORE the sinking. Am I the only one?

Wow I have a white milk glass candy dish exactly like the one on the top shelf! I like the bottles - look like the ones used for salad dressing.

Robski - I don't think so, many people have been through this hospital after it closed.

I agree with many what a waste.

I bet aot of those dishes are colectors items and worth some serious cash.

Goverment waste at its best.
