Medical Museum Collection, Box 3B
Aspirator in a stainless steel case, similar to a Potains aspirator. The case measures 26 x 7 x 3.5 cm, and contains: 1) aspirator pump, 2) twin valve stopper, 3) one needle, 4) two ribbed white hose pieces, with metal connectors, 5) metal wrench, 6) three ebony-handled knives, and 7) one plastic-handled knife. The case is in poor condition: it is badly dented and the left hinge is broken. The instruments are in fair condition: the rubber of the hose pieces has hardened, and the knives have minor rusting.
1890-1900?
