Medical Museum Collection, Box 11
Ear diagnostic set in a black leatherette case, measuring 24.5 cm x 10 cm x 5.5 cm. The purple velvet-lined case has a metal slide clasp and instrument loops. It was donated in August 1948 by Mrs. W.H. Becker, of Roseburg, OR, and is missing many of the original instruments. The case currently contains: 1) three ear specula, 2) ear spoon and hook instrument, 3) angled ear light, 4) black metal optoscope, 5) ear knife with a curved blade, and 6) a Politzers angular ear perforator. The case is in poor condition: the cover material is split and separating from the wood base.
ca. 1920's
