I got an intact model skeleton once, somebody was giving it away when leaving their studio. When I picked it up I had no idea it was real, shoved it into a plastic bag and took it home. At home I was astounded at how well it was made. It looked like real bone, it had the same porosity and detail as bone. Opened up a browser and got pointed to a label on the cranium which certified it as authentic human skeleton. Forgot the details but that was a real skeleton. They were imported before the 50s-60s from Asia, probably India. Meanwhile they became somewhat illegal to trade, I found. Actually shipping human bones became illegal. On ebay they were posted for around $5000. Scary. It’s sad that someones remains are subjects of commerce. I took it to a police precinct, they said they’d send it to a crematorium.
