Memorabilia

This section mainly includes surgical instruments, microscopes and other scientific instruments. But in addition, it also contains various types of medical apparatus, uniforms, trophies, ceremonial pieces, and other three-dimensional objects.

Many of the items were owned by Jefferson faculty or alumni including bone instruments, a lithotomy knife, and amputation instruments of Samuel D. Gross; an almost complete set of surgical instruments for William W. Keen; and instruments of John Chalmers Da Costa.
