Most of the items are quite fragile and all have been placed in acid free folders to provide them with some protection. The anatomical chart is roughly 165 cm long by 50 cm wide and had been folded many times. It is very fragile and looks as though it has previously been backed. To aid its preservation it has now been folded in half and placed in a large folder in poster Cabinet 3 / Drawer 4.
