Seems they were into the safety field and I guess one of these kits could have been part of a Model As carry along bag.

I had never seen these before. I was a paramedic for 15 years, and worked in a hospital for 5 years before that. Jeff

Thumbs up Re: 1930s Auto Emergency 1st Aid Kit?

I've seen some First Aid kits on eBay for sale and some of them have stated
for automobiles. Hard to fix the age of them, but I would say most are
from the 40's to 60's. I have a metal boxed "Curity Automobile First Aid Kit"
that is also stored in a canvas bag. It definitely has a post war look and
feel to it. What interior good's are left are paper, cotton, glass & steel, no
plastic for sure.

I missed that you were gone.

Speaking of fan club, I need a 32 volt fan for my new light plant.

My first thought was first aid for the car. LIke a screwdriver or extra points.

These were also part of a first aid kit that was kept in sealed cylinder at the front of school buses many, many moons ago.

If anyone would want something like this to go along with your display, PM me, I know where they are and the fellow wants $50.00. I have no idea if they are worth that or not.
