Editor’s Note: Founded in New Jersey in 1939, Pyro Plastics specialized in injection-moulded plastic products, including a series of educational anatomical model kits. Subjects included the human heart, ear, eye, and nose and mouth. Each kit contained plastic parts, an instruction booklet, decals, and a rotating display stand, providing a hands-on way to learn about human anatomy through model building.
