			:* Hollow pointed vaccinating lancet (item 2) features a metal hollow-pointed blade that swivels on a rivet between two horned handles. This is an example of one of the vaccinators developed during the 19th century for use in the campaign to prevent smallpox.

			:* Pocket medicine pharmacy case (item 3). This is a representative leather pocket medicine case, which opens with flaps on each side and contains two rows of twelve bottles. The physician provided the patient with the common emergency drugs.
