If memory serves correct(highly doubtful), I think it was $360. Less than we thought and perhaps a very well bought rare item. Time will tell!

The suspenders in the 1912 picture from Nicaragua are definately not the suspenders we are talking about as they are m1907 pattern. The ones in the recruiting poster and the pictrue from Veracruz, Mexico are accurate.

 

This picture is from the US Marine occupation of Haiti. As far as I can tell, these suspenders were issued to Marines during the early years of the Banana wars.
