Item Description

"In good original vintage condition."

Discover a rare set of vintage mid-century Bulgarian anatomical wall charts on heavy hardboard, featuring detailed medical illustrations with Latin and Bulgarian keys.

  • Dimensions: approx. 70 x 50 cm (27.5 x 19.7 inches).
  • Material: Mounted on thick, durable hardboard.
  • Origin: These illustrations are sourced from the anatomical atlas published by Alwin Fröhlich, Leipzig. Printed in Bulgaria, 1950s, by the State Publishing House "Nauka i Izkustvo" for the Bulgarian Red Cross (БЧК).
  • Anatomical Systems:
    • Poster 1 (Single-sided): Human Vascular/Circulatory System (Съдова система).
    • Poster 2 (Double-sided): Side A features the Torso with Internal Organs and Digestive System; Side B features a detailed view of the Respiratory and Muscular systems.
  • Language: Descriptions and legends are provided in both Latin and Bulgarian.
  • Authors/Editors: Edited by Prof. Dr. D. Kadanov (Director of the Institute of Anatomy, Sofia) and Prof. Dr. M. Balan.
  • Mounting: Includes original small perforations at the top, allowing the boards to be tied together or hung as a set.

These items are authentic vintage school aids and show signs of their history. One poster features prominent water stains/foxing across the surface. The double-sided poster shows some sun-bleaching on one side. These imperfections add to the "industrial" aesthetic and verify the age of the pieces.

Please take a look at the photos to evaluate the condition for yourself.

Dating and Verification

These posters are dated to the 1950s based on the tenure of the editors and the publishing history of the State Publishing House "Nauka i Izkustvo" in Sofia. Professor Dr. D. Kadanov and Professor Dr. M. Balan were the primary authorities at the Institute of Anatomy during this period. Furthermore, the specific design of the Bulgarian Red Cross (БЧК) logo and the source material from the Alwin Fröhlich Leipzig Atlas are characteristic of educational materials produced during the early Socialist era in Bulgaria.
