| Description | Rectangular green leather case with plastic handle on the lid, and frontal metal locks, contains "Air-Viva" Resuscitator, made in Australia by CIF (Commonwealth Industrial Gases Limited) as printed. Inside the case, the lid is lined with printed instructions, and the resuscitator is housed with its components. It consists of a plastic reservoir bag, a facemask (made in the UK as engraved) and an angled clear plastic non-rebreathing patient valve with silicone rubber diaphragm, as patented in 1962. The kit is incomplete as a second face mask is missing.
