The case is 4″ long and just under 1.5″ in diameter. This is a rare old piece of medical equipment and there are a couple of these on display in Museums like the Smithsonian. Exactly it’s purpose is not clear. It could be used as a mold to make suppositories. It could be used to insert them but it is not clear how it would work since there is no plunger to push the suppository out of the holder. From the estate of a medical doctor.
VINTAGE RARE Photo Prints Set of 2 Corporate Art Blood Warmer Medical 24×20 inch. This unique set of prints appear to be for a company that used to be called Fenwal out of Lake Zurich, IL. I would say they appear to be from the 70s or 80s. These photo prints are 24 x 20 inches in size, and are printed on Kodak paper. They were in frames that were silver and heavy but the glass was broken. One print has a tear on the finish from where it had stuck to the glass after so many years in storage. I had reached out to the company that these would have belonged to, but wasn’t able to get any information regarding them. They must have been in an office space or sales office to sell medical equipment to prospective buyers. Very different and unique!
