A compelling vintage physician’s kit housed in a textured black leather Lilly doctor’s bag, monogrammed “Ted Cohen, M.D.” and featuring a brass clasp. The bag contains an assortment of antique medical instruments including a Marshall-branded stethoscope, a Gowllands (Made in England) otoscope, German-made surgical tools marked E.B. Meyrowitz and Carolina, and various implements such as forceps, shears, a bone saw, and tongue depressors. The instruments show typical wear consistent with age and use, adding authentic character to this early-to-mid 20th century collection. The bag itself remains structurally sound with visible patina to the leather and hardware. A fascinating display set for collectors of medical antiques or historical memorabilia. Approx. bag dimensions (in): 5.75 x 13.5 x 5.25.
