My neighbor picked these up at a garage sale and gave them to me cause he knows I collect militaria. I can,t find a date or maker on the pack but the musset bag is a Burlington Mills Inc. 1942 and both have the name E. J. Maggi written on them. Also there's a winter and summer campaign hat and belt.
