viking73 Posted February 29, 2020 Share #1 Posted February 29, 2020 Hi Group, I picked up this yesterday at an antique shop west of Fort Worth (the owner is a member here!). It's my first B-5 life preserver with a nice 1949 date of manufacture. It's in good shape with just a few rips/holes. Looks pretty complete as well. Thanks for looking! -Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
