Labels of this size may be added to items to declare ownership and to make sure that they get returned to their proper place. Since they have the [[#Fourth Logo: The Caduceus|Caduceus Logo]] they belong in the [[Medical Station]]. Maybe the Rx-1 designation has also the meaning of belonging to that station, however there was no Caduceus Logo on the vial in [[The Swan]]. |
