Abstract
Buenos Aires’ González Varela Library-Museum exhibits a possibly unique Lundy Rochester Model of Heidbrink Kinet-O-Meter anesthesia machine. Surveyed anesthesia libraries or museums reported no identical model of anesthesia machine or literature specific to same. Machine markings and the flowmeter patent helped narrow the year of manufacture to circa 1936.
