 * ANATOMICAL MODELS

   developed by Dr. Louis Th.J. Auzoux (1797-1880), a French medical doctor.
   They were made of papier-mâché. Dr. Auzoux's models of humans, animals, and
   plants were designed for use in teaching medicine and anatomy and could be
   taken apart and put back together. 'Dissecting' the models provided a similar
