The Anatomical Chart Company in Skokie, Illinois, has its origins in the charts meticulously painted by the medical illustrator Peter Bachin during the 1940s and 50s. Bachin, born in Austria in 1897, came to America by hiding between potato sacks on a ship. Approximately three years were spent painting each of the 5 original anatomical charts in the collection, of which the Skeletal System and Muscular System remain our best-selling charts. In the 1960s, after the death of Peter Bachin, his widow sold the charts to Marshall Cordell who had worked for the Bachin's. In 1971, Cordell started The Anatomical Chart Company. In the 25 years since, the original chart line grew into over 100 anatomical charts covering a wide variety of subjects including Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Epilepsy, Cholesterol, Alzheimer's Disease, AIDS, and even Keys to Healthy Eating! The 1998-99 Anatomical Products Catalog not only features the educational chart line (including charts on nutrition and fitness), but also life-size anatomical models, a wide variety of skeleton and skull models including natural human bone, acupuncture models, and models of specific systems (such as Digestive or Vascular), organs, joints and spines--just to name a few. Body Trends is proud to offer the entire line of quality educational products from the Anatomical Chart Company.
