Superior Coach Corporation Iowa First Aid Kit
An authentic mid-century industrial first aid cabinet manufactured by Superior Coach Corporation of Lima, Ohio, this vintage wall-mounted first aid kit is an outstanding piece of American industrial and medical history. Complete with its original contents inventory, a large assortment of vintage sealed medical supplies, and a 1965 National Safety Council Pocket Guide to First Aid, it presents exceptionally well for collectors, restorers, vintage transportation enthusiasts, or anyone decorating a garage, workshop, pharmacy, or industrial space.
Unlike the smaller automobile first aid kits commonly found, this larger steel cabinet was designed for commercial or institutional use and displays beautifully as both a collectible and conversation piece.
