Description

A fascinating and rare example of mid-20th century medical engineering, this fully articulated prosthetic arm showcases the ingenuity and craftsmanship of early prosthetics. Comprising a durable synthetic outer shell, detailed lifelike hand, integrated mechanical elbow joint, and leather-strapped shoulder harness, this piece was designed to restore mobility and independence to amputees in a pre-digital age.

The interchangeable hand is detachable via a metal coupling system and can be replaced with the included rare multi-pronged utility attachment, often used for gripping tools or utensils. With functional cable control mechanisms still intact, this prosthesis not only tells a story of human resilience but also offers incredible visual interest for collectors, artists, or anyone with an eye for historical medical pieces.

This is not a reproduction. A genuine artifact likely used post-WWII through to the 1960s–70s, possibly by a military or industrial accident survivor.
