Mid-20th century reusable hypodermic syringe set with glass barrel and metal plunger, stored in its original metal case. The case retains the cloth padding it was found with, likely used to protect the syringe during transport, adding to its authentic vintage character.
This example is unusual in having a built-in mechanical half-minute timer — a rare feature thought to be used for timing sterilisation or dosing intervals. Such timer-equipped sets were not standard issue, making this a sought-after find for serious collectors of vintage medical instruments.
Condition: Good vintage condition with age-related wear to the metal, glass, and cloth. The timer mechanism is intact but has not been tested. For display only — not intended for medical use.
