Old vials - medical samples, 1910 (l10)

Pair of laboratory glass bottles, preserved with their original cork stoppers and particularly evocative handwritten labels. The inscriptions explicitly mention samples related to medical research, including "black mucus" and "male rat blood - cancer", accompanied by dates (February and August 1910). These pieces are part of the context of the first scientific experiments around diseases, particularly cancer, at a time when laboratories directly manipulated and preserved biological samples. The cloudy appearance of the glass, the internal deposits, and the general patina reinforce the raw and authentic character of this rare set, with a strong historical and visual impact.
