Additional Comments: We own a genuine human radius. That's the bone that goes from the wrist to the elbow.

When my son was in grade school he had to write about the human body. I thought I'd help him make his presentation interesting so I found the phone number to a biological warehouse. Not only did they have human body parts. They gave me a choice. I bought the last one they were ever going to have because shipping human body parts to the US had just been boycotted. The human radius was once a part of an Asian Indian woman. Now dead.

My son's assignment was a success. You can imagine the kids curiosity.

Now the radius is on display in the china hutch with all my better china and crystal stemware. My only Indiana Jones artifact cost $11...CHEAP!

I have a pocket watch chain made out of my great great great grandmothers hair. It's macramed and has gold fittings on it. She made one for each of her brothers. It's actually very lovely and the macreme is very intricate! It's unbelievably sturdy and in excelent condition.
