This is a 1:1 scale scapula.
Identifiable features:

Subscapular fossa
Suprascapular notch
Supraspinous and infraspinous fossa
Spine of the scapula
Superior, lateral, inferior, and acromial angles
Superior, medial, and lateral borders
The model is from the Body Parts 3D Database at http://lifesciencedb.jp/bp3d/?lng=en, which is a NIH funded comprehensive database of 3D anatomical structure data. According to their white paper (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2686534/), the models were constructed from 2 mm interval MRI images of a male volunteer.
I fixed up some non-printable surfaces using Meshmixer, rotated it to the best orientation for a good balance of quality and strength. Large features and landmarks on the bone are easily identifiable, but smaller details may not be visible. These models can be printed on 8" x 8" x 8" or 200mm x 200mm x 200mm 3D printers.
