This real articulated set comprises all 12 thoracic vertebrae. The specimen retains handwritten markings and paint from its previous educational use, adding to its authentic character. Sourced from retired medical professionals and accredited donor programs, it represents genuine osteological material ideal for students, educators, and collectors.

We believe education is the greatest gift osteology can share and that every human specimen can contribute to the advancement of science. These specimens are provided to us by retired physicians, medical researchers, dental professionals, and former university medical programs. We also work with accredited donor programs. A small sample - often antiques that simply do not qualify for medical/research grade usage - are made available to osteology enthusiasts worldwide so that they may continue to educate and inform.
