Unfinished/Rejected Liner

[Nickman983]

I just picked this one up since I thought it was interesting and figured some of you might find it interesting as well. This is what I believe to be an unfinished and or rejected MSA liner. It feels thinner/more brittle than a normal liner and it looks like the duck cloth wasn't positioned correctly in the mold and there may have been potential issues during the curing process as neither the inside nor the outside is completely smooth. A suspension was never put into this liner and it never received paint so I can only assume it was rejected just after molding.

 

The seller I bought this from was based out of PA right around where MSA is headquartered.
