Digital photograph of a drug kit in a black leather case. The case has been placed on a gray counter, and the front flap has been folded down to reveal a row of glass vials containing unidentified substances. A ruler has been placed in the foreground for size comparison.
A drug kit in a dark brown leather case, measuring 23.5 x 8 x 11 cm. The case has an ornate square silver clasp. The front of the unlined case folds down to allow access to a leather pocket, as well as one row fitted with eight metal vial clips. A large compartment takes up the rest of the case interior. The case contains: 1) twelve glass vials, 8.2 cm in height, 2) ten glass vials, 9 cm in height, and 3) eight larger glass vials. All vials have cork stoppers. The vials are generally in good condition, though a vial containing "Pil Quinia Sulph" was broken in 1978. The case is in fair condition, with some splitting of the leather. The kit was donated by Willard Smith Boutwell in July 1950.
ca. 1870-1880?
