They put a couple of new things on display at the museum last weekend but I didn't have the camera with me. I took it yesterday though!
They were things they brought back from Tupelo a couple of weeks ago. Hubby had told me about them but I didn't know how soon they'd set them out.

This is a portable x-ray machine. I wish I had thought to ask which era it's from. Someone here might know. It's obviously not a new machine so I'm guessing Korean War or earlier.

This radio is in mint condition as it apparently was never used. The box it's sitting on has drawers with extra pieces in them. The top drawer that's visible has several tubes in it.

Very cool pieces of equipment. I have never seen a portable X-Ray machine. Wonder if they used one like it in “M*A*S*H”?

Really, really cool new displays!

One of my Dad’s ham radio set ups resembled that new radio.
