Vintage autopsy table for sale















From one of my favorite design sites, Apartment Therapy. This person wrote in to find out where he can sell his vintage autopsy table. My first question... why would you want to part with such a thing? My second question... can I have it?

(The above photo is not of the table in question.  It's a shot from the early 1900s that now resides in the Library of Congress and can be found here.)

I dad worked at a hospital years ago, so I have an actual Autopsy Room sign (They were remodelling and tossing the old signs).

It doesn't look like anything special, but I just like the fact it came from an actual hospital.

Hi my friends...I have an autopsy table that is very, very old. It has a beautiful oak pedestal base that has bronze feet caps. The table is wood that has a metal insert to catch the juices. A hole at the end allows for run off. I don't know the age or any details, that's why I am posting. Thanks
