The Verbandkasten contents label was a standardized instruction sheet affixed to the inside of German military first aid boxes during the Second World War. It listed all medical instruments, bandaging materials, and medicines contained in the kit, organized into two sections: A. Medical equipment and bandaging materials and B. Medicinal supplies. Each item was numbered and described according to military regulations, enabling quick identification and correct use even under combat conditions.
These labels were found in field medical boxes carried in vehicles, ambulances, field hospitals, and command posts. They served as essential quick-reference guides for medics and soldiers, ensuring that first aid procedures could be carried out efficiently and in a standardized way.
Faithful reproductions of these labels recreate the original layout and typography, making them an ideal addition to WWII reenactment equipment, film props, museum displays, and historical exhibits, where they complete the authentic look of German field medical kits.
