Collection on Ebay...

[J_Gillett]

Just curious if anyone has seen any of the original items currently being sold on ebay by heritageauctionsinc. I am not an expert by any means, but some of these items appear to be really interesting examples with no reproductions being currently made. Just about every piece of union field equipment is currently for sale, I figure it was a private collection that is now on the chopping block...

Look up:

Rubberized Haversack

Gutta Purcha Knapsack

Searching "Knapsack" also yields a variety of what appear to be fed issue singlebags of various makes and designs.

Also a pair of brogans and a gum blanket among other things.
