Personally, I believe this sea bag is totally legit for all the reasons Gear Fanatic states.  There are many better ways to make this bag a highly desirable Raider item.  Just my opinion.

Once again…. I… AM… Not buying any more buckles! I wish that statement was correct. On line purchase at a reasonable price. Un-named Submariner’s buckle. pretty  simplistic but interesting design. Enjoy.   

Thanks Ben, the 2 large USAF patches are theater made. 

NOW THAT'S....  What I'm talking about!! Great finds!

I picked this set up about a year ago- jacket and shirt matching laundry number. Wondering what they might run and if they would sell more as a set or individually. I haven't been able to identify the soldier. Thanks!    

Still a great set. Both pieces are valuable on their own however it's a great looking set as is. (plausible they were matched in the late 19th century)

Thank you.  I agree, it looks like a civil war buckle with Indian wars belt.

Very interesting badge, I'm not sure who made it. The wreath and rifle style don't match the other British badges. This looks like it was copied from a US made badge pattern with a British style clasp. The enamel looks thick which is also a characteristic of some British badges. Very cool!

I was also going to reference this thread, thank you brig.

Don’t get me wrong I see your point. But I don’t believe that is the case on this one. For one on the wear of the paint. The paint is fairly bright on the front and faded on the back, there are a ton of folds on it where you can see it was sitting for a long time and it was bleached on these folds and the folded parts retained color. This is also visible on the paint and you can see on the third MarDiv logo has folds where the paint is wearing off. Second, this was not bought from another collector or any sort of person who had much knowledge on this kind of thing. It was sitting in my friends grandmas neighbors garage and they are moving so she is cleaning out the garage and asked him if he knew anyone who liked military stuff. So he called me. I drove out about an hour to go get it from the home. I also posted the pictures that the neighbor took of it in the garage (they aren’t focused because they were selling the drill press in the corner) and third, with this being painted so late in this marines wartime service it would also make sense that there is not as much wear since it probably was used just on his way back stateside and then discarded. Also, if someone was going to fake a raider item why wouldn’t they paint the raider emblem instead of the 3rdmardiv. Emblem? That would garner more attention and be more appealing right? I am fully willing to entertain that viewpoint. But in my opinion I don’t believe that this is a humped up piece. I apologize for the long winded response, just want to clearly represent my stance. Thank you both for your comments.
