<p>[QUOTE="Ownedbybear, post: 413652, member: 29"]Not fine gauze wound covering dressings, but the heavier woven cotton type, used to secure gauze in place. The sort that came as a roll with a paper tape round to hold them. Or even the large sling types. Predating tape, anyhow. Yes, I can remember scissors like that from First Aid kits Ma had when I was a child - I think I still have a pair somewhere. I think even then sterile gauze was in paper packs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
