alktrio06 Posted October 4, 2013 Share #1 Posted October 4, 2013 I picked up this case and was wondering If it is WWI or WWII? There is a patent of 1912 on the instruments. Also, is it complete? Anyone have pics of their examples? Gary Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etienne Posted October 4, 2013 Share #2 Posted October 4, 2013 Hello Gary, I'm not an expert but this case is likely to be later than ww1 ... are the instruments MD-USN stamped ? Anyway, it's very nice. E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alktrio06 Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share #3 Posted October 5, 2013 The tools are all marked "Langbein" the metal case says "Fred Slam & Co."? and "Patent Nov. 5, 1912" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m151mp Posted October 5, 2013 Share #4 Posted October 5, 2013 i see the scalpel set, but no instruments or sutures. the set i had went to a surgeon i know who collects this type of equipment. there had been an instrument in each of the loops, and several suture envelopes.
