Mail Order Anesthesia

The cover of a remarkably well-preserved 1899 anesthetic apparatus catalog from Claudius Ash & Sons, Ltd. Of London. Included on page 23 are actual silk samples of Cattlin’s bags, which were used with facepieces to administer nitrous oxide. The anesthetist shopping with Ash & Sons had four beautiful colors from which to choose!
