Lettiga a Mano Di Volata

This early 20th century Lettiga a mano “di volata” (literally: “sprint” hand stretcher) can be seen in the entrance hall of the Surgical pavilion “Confortini” of the Borgo Trento Hospital in Verona (Piazzale Aristide Stefani, 1). It was donated by the rail transport workers to the Green Cross Society at the beginning of the 20th century.
