Hi everyone,
I Went detecting for a little bit this afternoon after work at an old homesite. While digging around what used to be their trash pit, I found another old advertisement calendar for medical syringes. It's in rough shape and what little was holding it together broke while cleaning. Thought it was a pretty neat find.
Thanks for looking

Thats cool. I used to work for that company
 

Kinda cool. Hopefully someday you will come across the syringes to go with it. That would make them both really cool 😎
Thank you WannaDig3687.
Last year while digging in that same area I did find a few parts of the syringes.

Benton Dickinson is still today around as one of the largest medical products seller - a graingers for the medical field.
Old garbage is so cool
That's pretty cool that they are still in business today. I know, thats what I was telling a friend yesterday that the really old garbage is cool and tell a story of the past.
 

Crazy that the paper is still that intact being underground! Neat find!!

Oh yeah, definitely cooler now. I would be displaying them together. A neat conversation grouping. 🤗
 

Me neither. They actually have a museum in their corporate office in NJ with all of the products they started the company with. That product is displayed prominently 🤣🤣🤣
😆🤣 That's funny that they had something like that that long ago.
Pretty cool that they have a museum in their corporate office too.
