On my last dig Saturday I dug up an old bed pan. No I did not take it home.  I much more prefer my own porcelain bed pan. But what I thought was cool about this one was that it still had some writing on the side of the company that made it.  A good portion of it is covered with rust but its still readable in some parts. Any ideas on what the whole thing would have said?  I think the picture was pretty good so you guys should be able to read it. Thanks, Joey

When I was a kid (35 years ago) I brought one of them home from the woods.. had ABSOLUTELY no idea what it was, and used it in the back yard as a parking lot for my Matchbox cars.. how stupid I was to run all the way back in the house to make a number..

Hey Joey,

Beneath that rust, it likely reads:

"MEINECKE

"PERFECTION"

ENAMELED

BED and DOUCHE PAN

THE MOST COMFORTABLE

AND SANITARY "BED PAN"

IN THE WORLD

U.S.Patent No 651310

trademark "Perfection" registered in US and Canada"


They don't appear to be selling Like Hotcakes...
