  <dc:title>Injecta Hypodermic Needles</dc:title>
  <dc:description>The blue and white cardboard case houses a full set of twelve hypodermic needles, each securely held in place. The case’s lid bears a stained label reporting: “Injecta Klingenthal. Injections-Kanülen Chromnickelstahl Garantiert Rostfrei Federhart und bruchsicher Made In Germany 1 Dtz. No. Ansatz Rekord” (Injection cannulas. Nickel-chrome steel. Stainless guaranteed. Flexible and unbreakable. Record fit). Some corrosion is present.

Inside the box, a blue plastic pad features golden metal needle holders, where the needles are secured in the slots. These needles were designed to be a push-fit for the original Record syringes. Each needle is engraved with the number 12 at the end that fits into the syringe. Three of them still have the cleaning wire inside.

The outer bottom of the case has two pieces of tape, possibly added to the original package, to secure and close the box. “20” is printed on the corner.

Hypodermic needles are used to either inject fluids into the body or withdraw them, and these particular needles were specifically designed for the original Record syringes, patented by Dewitt &amp; Hertz.</dc:description>
