Complete experimental pouch EX 54-1. Very nice condition.
A scarce component of the 1954 Experimental Load Carrying Equipment trials. This pouch, stamped EX 54-17, is a prototype item developed by the US Army to test new designs before the adoption of the M-1956 system. A highly desirable piece for advanced collectors of Cold War field gear development.
Original US military "Poncho, Lightweight, with Hood", dated 1952. This item represents a major evolution in field gear introduced during the Korean War. Made from lightweight coated nylon (unlike the heavy rubberized WWII canvas) and featuring an integral hood for the first time. Essential gear for any Korean War USMC display.
A highly collectible "Unit Marked" M1 Helmet Liner manufactured by CAPAC Manufacturing Co. Issued to a trooper of the 11th Airborne Division ("The Angels"). Features the distinctive division insignia on the side. The CAPAC marking typically dates this liner to the early 1950s (Korean War contracts), making it a historically accurate piece for the era.

A guaranteed original World War II era shoulder sleeve insignia for the 17th Airborne Division ("Golden Talon"). This is a two-piece set featuring the division patch and the separate AIRBORNE tab, which is historically correct for the era. Authenticity is confirmed by the UV light test (does not glow), indicating vintage cotton construction suitable for the 1940s. The reverse features the desirable "Snowy Back" embroidery.
A classic piece of WWII aviation survival gear: The US Navy Mark 1 Survival Knife, famously nicknamed the "Giant Jackknife" due to its massive 6-inch closed length. Manufactured by COLONIAL PROV. R.I., this knife was issued to pilots and aircrew as part of the C-1 Survival Vest. It features a large clip-point blade and a rugged saw blade specifically designed to cut through Plexiglas canopies or aircraft aluminum skin. The knife is in nice vintage condition.
The older type of woollen blue USMC trousers for Blue Dress. Size 4L.
Rare USMC experimental vest with ballistic or shrapnel protection and DORON plates. Size M. Lightly used stock condition.
This type of vest is one of the test pieces produced during WWII. While the US. Army preferred to use metal plates, the USN and USMC tested the DORON material.
The material was named after Gen. G. F. Doriot, who commanded the Research and Development Branch, Office of the Quartermaster General.
The ultimate piece of USMC airborne gear: Original WWII Drop Bag / Jump Scabbard for the M55 Reising Submachine Gun. Issued exclusively to the legendary Paramarines. Made of heavy canvas in the Frogskin camouflage pattern. This item is in used condition showing honest wear, yet remains structurally perfect without any damage(rips, tears, or missing hardware).
Slightly used Army Combat Service Gas Mask (Bag M7). Rubber is soft, buttons are not torn. There are a few small rust spots on the cover and straps. Overall very nice condition.
Used US M43 shovel cover. Year of manufacture: 1944.
An exceedingly rare piece of US Special Forces history: The WWII Original Scroll of the 7th Ranger Battalion. Often referred to by collectors as a "Phantom Unit", patches for the 7th Bn were manufactured late in the war in anticipation of the unit's activation, which was ultimately cancelled or short-lived before deployment. Despite the unit's obscure history, the patch features undeniable wartime construction: embroidery on black wool felt with a Cut Edge and a standard "Snowy Back" reverse. Essential for completing a Ranger Scroll collection.
Used pocket guide A Guide To U.S. Army Insignia. Year of publication 1941.
Unused USMC Haversack with a second type knapsack. Neither part has manufacturer's markings or date of manufacture. The date on the stock tag is 1945. Perfect unused condition.
