150 Prosthetic Eyes, Wood Case and Devices
This is an amazing find! It was the full collection of an ocular prosthetic specialist. I would date the case and eyes to 1950 -1960. The unique 6 draw cabinet feels very Mid-Century Modern. There are 150 finished eyes in a variety of colors and shapes. In addition there are many parts and unfinished blanks, boxes and draw labels. Included are some eye measuring tools. One set looks to be quite old and must be turn of the century. Case size is 21″x 16″x 14″… $3600
