From the Smithsonian: "Box of rectal suppositories with an inscription that reads in part “OBTUNDOBULBS” and “OTIS CLAPP & SON, INC.” Otis Clapp (ca. 1820-1886) was a Bostonian, a Swedenborgian, a publisher, and founder (in 1840) of the first homeopathic pharmacy in New England. That firm became Otis Clapp & Son in 1874. Otis Clapp & Son, Inc. advertised Obtundobulbs in the New England Medical Gazette 48 (Dec. 1913); and filed for a trademark on the name in 1924." You read that right, rectal suppositories for pain relief. Also "Made to melt at body temperature" and "Insert large end first." Art deco design, celluloid. Size: 1"T x 2.25"L x 1.5"D
