FULL LEG SPLINTS
H1989.768
Former Kalgoorlie Mining Associates property. Ring at top slopes to accommodate whole leg from end of torso. This has two metal poles either side which taper and form one piece at base [foot]. There is a piece of U shaped metal which clips to metal poles and can be slid up and down to adjust leg length. Probably used as splint frame for soft bandaging.
