    Description

    This 2cc glass syringe with a short intramuscular jab hypodermic needle was found in storage near the "Drug Room" of the Kirkbride Building, pictured, at Bryce State Hospital in Tuscaloosa, Alabama before the Powers That Be decided to rip the wings off the building.
    Obviously, to conform with eBay policy, the hypodermic needle will be removed before sending. This auction is for the glass syringe only.
    Building also not included; image is for reference / provenance purposes only.
    This is part of a large set of listings I am going to be putting up this summer of asylum, sanatorium, and quarantine hospital memorabilia. Unfortunately, the acquisition of an even larger and more historically important collection inherited after the passing of my best friend has forced my wife and I both to part with some of our treasures; we live in NYC and have limited space.
    Please inspect the pictures carefully and ask any questions you may have ahead of time - no returns will be allowed for any reason from these auctions.
