1995-1-1 - Geoffrey Bewley's binaural stethoscope

Portable binaural stethoscope made by Fannin Ltd., owned by Dr. Geoffrey Bewley. Tubing extends from chest piece to eartips, meaning it is completely flexible. Black rubber tubing is in poor condition and is deteriorating. Diaphragm is circular, with two metal stems extending from the upper portion, leading directly into the two rubber stems. Eartips are probably made of ivory.
