Look what we found in an old doctors house here in Northern Maine! It’s a beautiful antique otoscope that I believe was made by the Brunton Co. This physician got his degree and began his practice from his home in 1891. His family held on to many of his medical items, including this otoscope. The original little case that is lined with purple satin. All of the pieces are in. Unpolished and original condition, maintaining the wonderful patina. With no apparent damage. Maintained his practice here in Norther Maine for over 50 years.

This is for a lot of antique medical equipment, 6-7 glass syringes, extra stainless steel needles in varying sizes, brochures advertising medical products, 2 books. First book is “Rules for Obstetrical Service”, 2nd book is “Medical Emergencies”. There is a complete set of glass vials filled with sterile liquid and cat gut and thread for suturing all in their original case. Some have half curved needles inside as well. There is a boxed stainless circle called a “gelbfilter” German, a boxed thermometer, a tongue depressor advertisement still wrapped in cellophane. Flier advertisements for medical products, one being herbal mixtures. There is a wooden spool full of cotton covered copper wire called “magnet” wire, a long and thin curved stainless steel stick, a “Prestige Medical” brand scissors and tweezers and glass dropper in it’s original case with the advertising ruler as well, and a black enameled swiveling magnifier glass.

THIS IS A MOST UNUSUAL AND RARE ANTIQUE (c late 1800s / early 1900s) ITEM OF FRENCH GYNECOLOGICAL / MEDICAL COLLECTIBLE – A’VERITABLE IRRIGATEUR SYSTEME’ HAND OPERATED PRESSURE SYSTEM, VAGINAL PUMP / IRIGATOR. THESE MACHINES WERE PATENTED IN 1842, BY THE INVENTOR, Dr MAURICE EGUISIER. THEY WERE STILL BEING PRODUCED UNTIL THE 1920s. THE BRONZE COATED IRON MACHINE WHICH MEASURES 23cm HIGH X 8.7cm DIAMETER. STANDS ON A PEDESTAL SHAPED BASE. AT THE TOP OF THE ROUND PROFILE BODY, IS A SCREW OFF TOP SECTION, WITH A HINGED HOPPER. NEXT TO THIS IS A COILED SPRING WITHIN A DRUM. THE SPRING PUTS PRESSURE ONTO A GNARLED GEAR WHEEL, WHICH LOCKS ONTO A RATCHETED SHAFT WHICH HAS A PERFORATED PLATE AT THE BOTTOM, WITH A RUBBER SEALING GASKET. ON THE FRONT OF THE BODY, IS A TAP AND NOZZLE FOR ATTACHING A RUBBER IRRIGATION TUBE. THE FRONT OF THE MACHINE HAS A PLATE WHICH READS:’VERITABLE IRRIGATEUR SYSTEME’ P. DE DOCTEUR EGUISIER’ THE INSIDE OF THE HINGED LID IS MARKED: INSTRUCTION (1) FERMEZ LE ROBINET (close the tap) (2) VERSES LE LIQUIDE (pour the liquid) (3) TOURNEZ LE CLEF A DROITE (turn the key to the right) (4) OUVRES LE ROBINET (open the tap).. THE MACHINE WAS DESIGNED SO THAT THE FLUIDS LEAVING THE VAGINA, WOULD BE CONTAINED WITHIN THE RUBBER TUBE, THEREBY KEEPING BOTH THE PATIENT AND THE GYNECOLOGIST DRY!!!! I HAVE READ DURING MY RESEARCH – THOUGH IT SOUNDS A BIT FAR FETCHED, AND I HAVE YET TO FIND ONE, THAT SOME OF THE MORE SOPHISTICATED DEVICES CONTAINED A MUSICAL BOX IN THE BASE, WHICH WOULD PLAY EITHER THE’THE BOCCACCIO WALTZ’ OR’THE LITTLE DUCK’ AS SOON AS THE TAP WAS OPENED – HOW CALMING THAT MUST HAVE BEEN!!! THIS RARE ITEM WOULD MAKE A NICE ADDITION TO ANY MEDICAL / GYNECOLOGICAL MEMORABILIA COLLECTION.
