-Italian stamps from 1860 - 1945 (but I am start to selling it Sad

)
-Pharmaceutical and Medical Historical stuffs (with a specific selection of ASPIRINE from dozens of countries)
-Old Books (1700-1900)
-Maps (up to 1945)

I was in a small town today in my province and in a Pharmacy window there
was a display of an old medical cabinet and packages below, I thought
of you bitbollo. Do you have a cabinet like this for your collection?

Wow! This is lovely to see and we as pharmacist love all of this "history of medicine".
As you may know the modern pharmacology has more or less 70 years-100 years no more...
Many pharmacies also in Italy show these items on their premise. I find this "a good sign" because if you care about the history of medicine, somewhat you care about your current job

All my colleagues owner of a pharmcy (or probably their grand parents) are collectors. Literally ALL.
I have the plan to realize something like this at my home... But I never did it. Maybe showing "knife" "syringe" etc mmm

I am just acting like a compulsory collector Wink

buying, and hidden in my basement ... Wink

Oh, Wow. - That’s really cool. 😎 - I love that type of stuff. My dad has been an antique dealer for a large part of his life and he is big into bottles. - I personally always loved the medicine 💊 / Poison ☠️ Bottles. They always are marked in a unique way that separates them from other types of bottles. A lot of things were made better back in the day I feel.
