    Default First aid kit......

    Cool, old First Aid Kit....in a tin about the same as a Altoids tin....from the 1950's or maybe older.
    I guess these tins never go out of style

    Made by E.D. Bullard & Co
    Kind of interesting to see what was important 65 years ago.....

    I guess fainting has gone out of style.

    That does not look much different from the FAK I bought commercially a while back except mine was in a zippered pouch and had no "smelling salts".
    If you didn't bring jerky what did I just eat?

    Careful with that. You might need a first aid kit messing with that stuff. A tetanus shot anyway.
