If people are looking for some VERY interesting X-rays of humans with
different types of bone-related problems, I might be able to help link
you with some good resources. I am a member of an association of
people with a genetically-linked bone disease that causes phenomenal
bone growth upon injury. Please contact me off-list for further
information.

Old X rays are very cheap and pretty easy to get hold of. I have
generally found that laminating them prevents scratching of the film
itself and have had them last several years. You can cheaply build your
own light box with a reasonable sized light source behind some white
perspex. People certainly find them fascinating.
