Large Leather Canister Rock Island Arsenal - for Artillery Accessory?


 Share

Recommended Posts

Hello - I am listing this here as much of what I see from the Rock island Arsenal seems to be related to tanks & artillery. Large russet leather canister outside dimensions 12 1/4" tall x 6" diameter, stamped 15 5 455 R.I.A. with inspector initials. Any thoughts on this, fellows? Thanks in advance for any opinions you can render.

That number is the Rock Island Arsenal drawing number. If you can locate a list of those numbers you may be able to tell what it is.
