Medicine Chest
Photographer: Michael Sean Nix
Taken: November 25, 2009
Caption: Medicine Chest
Additional Description: Small chests like these were used by doctors when making house calls to carry and protect their medicines. This example still has its original bottles, some of them with labels from Charleston, South Carolina, pharmacies. The Brattons who trained at the Medical College of the State of South Carolina were probably very familiar with chests like this one.
