B24AT6 Posted December 19, 2014 Share #1 Posted December 19, 2014 I have been chasing one of these for a long time, and finally managed to get one this week.The markings on this one are some of the nicest I've seen, with the Constabulary markings are meticulously painted on the front, which was actually carved into the liner before it was painted. On the inside it is named to Lieutenant James B. Carter including his serial number. The only flaw is the lieutenant pinned back his headband with paper clips that have rusted, staining the sweatband. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USMC-RECON0321 Posted December 20, 2014 Share #11 Posted December 20, 2014 Absolutely love the look of this one, very artistic (even how he painted his name and ASN)! Would be near impossible to upgrade from this example. Look forward to your research. Congrats Troy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johan Willaert Posted December 20, 2014 Share #12 Posted December 20, 2014 Very nice! I have always thought the immediate post WW2 Occupation period to be hugely underrated...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anton67 Posted December 20, 2014 Share #13 Posted December 20, 2014 Nice liner. Saw that one on ebay too. I was going to bid but I ended up spending my money on a Colt USGI 1911a1. Glad it ended up where it will be taken care of and appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Posted December 21, 2014 Share #19 Posted December 21, 2014 Thats a great Liner!!! I too am after one. I have a great period frames 5x7 photo of a Constable. The photo is black and white with some hand colored tinting highlighting the yellows on his liner and yello scarf around his neck.. A liner like this next to the photo would make for a real nice small display! Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
