Jenner's Medicine Chest

This medicine chest, made in the 1780s, was owned by a doctor called Edward Jenner, who is famous as a pioneer in vaccination. He invented the world's first vaccine, against smallpox – a disease that was responsible for one in ten deaths in Britain at the time. As a doctor, Jenner would have carried this chest with him when visiting patients in their homes.
