    My latest find was this medicine box wich has three bottles (unfortunately one of them is missing) and a tiny measurement cup. Each bottle is a fase of the treatment. In the box, it says it's from 1928 and it's from DE-NOL Laboratory (85 Simmonds St., Johannesburg).

    This medicine was composed by: pepsin, potassium chloride, ammonium carbonate, diastase, chloroform, concentrated bismuth liquor, diluted hydrocyanic acid, belladonna tincture, nutty tincture, sodium disulfonate, distilled water, aneurine hydrochloride, codeine phosphate syrup.

    Unfortunatelly, the box and the labels of the bottles are in really bad shape and I would like any help to repair it without taking it's essence and it's old aspect, of course.

    It was found in the attic of an old house in Portugal. Any help with more information or anything else would be appreciated.
