Found this today. No idea what it would be called. It is huge!! 50" tall 30 1/4" wide and 22" deep. Probably from the 1950's and would have been a dispay for Johnson and Johnson band aids, gauze, and other medical supplies. Bought it from a retired nurse, who had it in her office for years because she thought it was 'fun.' Not sure what I'm going to do with it, but doubt I'll come across another like it. Know anything about how these were used, what year or more details, I'd love to know.
6/19/12 -- Just noticed that Red Cross name is on supplies. Eg. "Red Cross Cotton" or "Red Cross Bandage." Could these stands have been used to set up temporary first aid stations at disaster sites???
