- A leather box, velvet lined, full of instruements associated with dentistry. Inside the inner lining is two leaflets, one is card and titled Instructions as to the use of Tooth Stopping Instruments, from the medical division of the War Office. The other is a paper leaflet on the Directions for using Copper Amalgam. Both appear to be orginal with the case. The case has Evans & Wormill 31 Stamford Street London. contents: 1x Pestel and Mortar. 1x Wood container for copper Amalgam 8 x excavators 6 with C. Ash & Sons. Eng, and 2 with Evans & Co T 2 x Burrs 5x other dental instruments It appears that the equipment does not match the cardboard list as the dentist would have swapped in his own items if more favoured.
