Just though that I would share this cup with everyone. Even though the Aluminum Company of America made over a million canteens and cups in 1917-18, ACA marked cups are very rare. This is the first one I had ever seen. post-6161-0-39832000-1446509377.jpgpost-6161-0-49060800-1446509379.jpg Seems as though they didn't put as high a priority on marking the cups as the canteens.

I didn't realize these were that rare. I know I have some ACA Canteens and/or Cups around here; gonna have to take a look-see.

Just had a look through my catalogued collection of 84 cups, 19 are ww1 dated and only 1 is marked ACA and out of 22 ww1 marked canteens, 4 are stamped ACA

 

Could be a scarce one ?

Nice, superb condition for over 100 years old.

 

I still haven't found another one since my last post in 2015.

 

Nick.
