DescriptionObject is a small metal box with wave-like patterns containing syringe and needle attachments. The box has space for other medicinal vials which are missing. The box is opened by a lateral metal hinge similar to a Zippo Lighter and has cotton placed inside the lid to protect the fragile needle, syringes, and medicine vials. The exterior of the box has very little to no external corrosion, and the needles and syringe on the interior appear to be in good condition save for the fraying of cork around the base of one of the needle attachments.On View
