Neurosurgical Set From Early 19th Century

Scary stuff!

A fine German fitted neurosurgical set dating to the early 19th century. The velvet lined leather case is decorated with embossed surrounds. It contain 17 compartments which accommodate a full set of instruments made from unplated polished steel, brass and horn. They are signed by Zitier, Heine and Sandill and it is likely that the boxed set was made specifically to accommodate these instruments.

Imagine complaining of a headache in the early 19th century and having your wacky doctor pull out this bit of kit!
