Note the tag sewn to the carry case. It says "JeePak". That would put it no earlier than very late 1930's. Most likely early 1940's until the beginning of Korean war. Say 1939 thru 1949.
The anitseptic pencil would not likely be WWII GI issue. I just can not recall at the momment the name of the powder used for battle wounds but such powder was in a tear-open bag. Hopefully one our members can recall details of what they were issued during the war. The plastic handled shaver would not be GI either. However, The "Jeepak" on the tag pretty much throws it either very late war years or there after.

Check the tooth brush to see if it is hog hair or nylon bristles. If nylon then very late post war era, probably 1949 or much later even into the 1960's.

All of the bristles on the tooth brush appear to be very homogeneously white. So not hog hair.
