000004462 520__ $$aA wooden stamp and ink pad, taken from the Pacific Theater during World War II by John B. White, M.D., and donated by him in January 1945. The unfinished wood stamp measures 4 x 5 cm and is carved with Japanese characters, which read in translation: Period of safety [blank], Month [blank], Date [blank]. The ink pad is in a round black lacquered box 7.5 cm in diameter, and is filled with a bright pink pigment. The stamp was probably used to mark expiration dates for medications. The stamp is in good condition, but the lacquer of the box is chipped and cracked. An old break to the box lid was repaired, but the wood has warped as a result.
