Pioneer Medical Bag of C.S. Ingersoll Montana and California
Pioneer Medical Bag of C.S. Ingersoll, Montana and California.
Group consists of: the leather medical bag, separate medical Pouch, Montana territory map By W.W. De Lacy, and photographs of the doctor and his family. Both the bag and the pouch are full of glass vials full of various substances thought to treat ailments at the time. There are several handwritten lists of ingredients inside the bag one of which is dated to 1882. The bag was likely used before this however, that's the only firm date I found. This is a very interesting piece of medical history. It would make a fantastic display in that sort of collection as well as a pioneer/ old west collection.
dimensions: bag: 8.5"h x 10.5"w x 4.5"d, pouch: 3"h x 5.5"w x 2"d, map, folded: 25" x 19-1/2"
Processing and shipping within the continental U.S $55 plus a 1.5% replacement cost insurance fee. Discounts given on combined lot shipping.
Condition:I believe the exterior of the medical bag could have been conserved at one point as it appears to have had red rot. Which has been treated with some sort of product. It is much darker than normal and does not rub off on fingers. Pouch has a 1.5" tear on the left side. Map has some tears.
