Male and female syringes donated by Mrs. Jennie McCurdy in September 1946. The female syringe is 18 cm in length, and the male syringe is 21 cm in length. Both syringes have glass tubes with screw-on metal caps, and both have plungers wrapped in cotton. Included with the syringes is a cardboard tube, 12 cm long, which contains a thin tube of a purple liquid. The items are generally in good condition, with some soiling of the female syringe.
