My grandpa is a old time chiropractor and I remember seeing a old xray machine he used to use back in the day. I believe its from 50s or 60s. Have no clue what its worth and who to sell it to. I am sure everything it there even the lead door. If you can help on some info on it I know its made by westinghouse that about.

Don't remember seeing anything like that. I got look at it again but it has a table and like a podium for the switch I think .

See if he has any x-Ray films left over. You can recover silver from them.

I have around 200 lbs of films that are waiting till I know what I'm doing..

I did not know that I think her has a lot. Were can I sell them?

I believe it's the dark areas that have the most silver,
so fully exposed film or non exposed must have or start off with full silver content ?
other then that . newer units are safer (radiation wise) so i don't believe Dr's will want to use the old machines
But they must be of intrest just for admiration or study.
