This beauty just in from the UK. The manufacturer of this urinal wears its logo with pride. Boots made urinals for individual pharmaceutical drug stores (Note "Cash Chemists" to the right of the logo). I have three of these in my collection from different apothecary shops. This has to be one of my favorite designs because it is so streamline and elegant. They made both this male and female models, which I will show at a later date. The attention to detail is phenomenal but understated and constrained with its simple strapped handle. The size at 11" long is optimal for its function, and the opening of 1 3/4" will comfortably accommodate the largest man. I would like to point out the asymmetrical throat morphing into the body. Notice that the arch on the top is different than the bottom. This adds to its unique presents and identifies it immediately as a Boots Urinal. This urinal is in very good condition with only slight scratches and glaze crazing on its surface from use and time. The design is so confident that it needs no additional ornamental embellishment. It is a true classic.
