    I got this in a yard sale and would like to know what it is and from what era in time. Its like nothing I have ever seen before. It has metric nos. one side and the other side is flat with no markings. If you know what this is and from what era/country it came from please let me know. Thanks Gene Bull

      I do believe as a RN I will tell you what I think it is "A male Urinal for bed patients "
      the numbers let the staff know how much output you had compared to input of fluids also :-) Haven't used glass in many many yrs .

      Yep vansky at least we both know where it goes :-) I have used them in VA Hopital I was not working in 50's but back in my Nam days as a Nurse they had outdated equipment ! And I could add more to the Gov hospitals then but will refrain :-)
