T Ambrosini Posted October 28, 2018 Share #1 Posted October 28, 2018 This came with a grouping of items (documents, photos) from the estate of an army vet who was stationed in California for the majority of WW2. Any thoughts are welcome. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vintageproductions Posted October 28, 2018 Share #3 Posted October 28, 2018 Right as can be, I have owned this variant a couple of times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T Ambrosini Posted October 28, 2018 Author Share #4 Posted October 28, 2018 Thanks for the response! I had no doubt regarding its authenticity but have only had one like it in hand before. Not something you see every day. Cheers, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefighter Posted October 30, 2018 Share #5 Posted October 30, 2018 Very cool. A variation I've never seen. Is it POST WW2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T Ambrosini Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share #6 Posted November 1, 2018 As I understand it, it is a WW2 variant. I've only handled one like it before. Unfortunately, I haven't seen a period photo of one being worn. I've seen reproductions of this for sale, most recently on eBay. Totally different material and construction.
