A cupping set in a wooden case, measuring 19.5 x 11.5 x 8.5 cm. The dark brown wood case has a brass lock plate and a burgundy velvet liner. A manufacturers label is affixed to the inner lid. The set contains: 1) two clear glass bell-shaped cupping jars, 2) three brass nozzle tips with stopcocks, 3) two hard rubber intubation tips, 4) a brass suction pump, and 5) a brass block-style scarifier with ten blades. The set was originally owned by Joseph McChesney, M.D., and was donated by Mrs. Hadley in March 1944. The set is in good condition, with minor scratching on the case.
