I was getting ready to post this for sale but realized that I don't have this cover manufacturer in my records so wanted to check into it.

Is this one a typical WWI manufacturer? Scarce, or did I just miss it when compiling my records?

As best as I can tell AJ Bates had a contract for 30,000 Dismounted M1910 Canteen Covers. The contract was dated November 1917 and I have seen December 1917 and January 1918 dated examples. I don't think they had any other contracts.
