Transylvania University
Museum of Medical and
Scientific Apparatus - Online
The following were taken directly from the Transylvania
University Museum, currently located in Old Morrison (as of July 15, 1996).
It will soon be moved to storage and will hopefully have a new home in a
few years. The photographs were taken by two of Transylvania's students:
John Bedell and Bill Perrine. Note that some items are labelled "Unknown",
each of these should have a link to allow you to send any information you
might have about the piece. If you do have information on any of the items
pictured, please let us know. Thank you and I
hope you have a nice visit at the Transylvania University Museum of Medical
and Scientific Apparatus.
