    Description

    "Fred Haslam & Co" (circa 1912) Metal Surgical Case
    12 1/2" long, 4" wide and 1" high. It has flip top lids on each end to protect the tools inside.
    The case holds nine spaces for operating tools. For each of the nine spaces, it has the name of the tool and an outline of the tool itself. Starting from the top side there are spaces for Sounders, two Urethrotomy Blades, a Straight Bistoury, a Silver Probe and four Catheters & Needles.  Unfortunately, none of the medical devices listed are available with the case.
    The rust/dirt have been cleaned and the original shine has been brought back to the unit.  The item is in excellent condition and has minimal ware for it's age.  There are no deep scratches or dents in the actual case itself.
    On the outside, located on each wing, are the trademark insignias with "Patented Nov. 5, 1912" engraved into the metal.  In the center, located on the inside, is the trademark insignia with "Fred Haslam & Co." engraved into the metal.
    Items such as these are very hard to find and a unique opportunity for any collector of vintage medical items.
