SOLD ~ Pilling Medical Suction & Pressure Apparatus c.1930s


This vintage medical device is a suction and pressure pump used in hospital procedures (administration of ether and as well as aspirating fluids). Manufactured by the Pilling Co. in the 1930s, we've only found one other glass domed apparatus like it at the Mutter Medical Museum in Philadelphia here. Electric cord has been removed so we have no idea if it works, however, interior of apparatus looks pristine.
