World War II-era Japanese water purification kit. The green case measures 8 x 4 x 1.5 cm, and contains three glass vials with paper labels. The kit also contains a small metal spoon. The kit is in poor condition: the vials have cracked, and the interior of the case has begun to degrade. The item was donated by Dr. E.H. McLean.
