$150 for the lot shipped via UPS conus only. I accept checks/mo only. As pictured, this is the whole lot. Ancient Jarnagin army shelter half in complete good usable condition. (think I got this at Shiloh 87). Painted ground cloth by John Keaghey. This is as new, unfortunately a very young nibbling puppy modified it right on the crease where it was reachable. Will require a 4"x6" patch to repair, otherwise as new (this is not a vulcanized rubber blanket 'gum blanket', it is a painted ground cloth with water repelling ability.) Used army tarred haversack, well used but still in good condition, no holes or bad spots. It's missing interior linen bag, but the buttons are still there. Not sure who made it but it's a find usable haversack with the 'field used' look. Lot further includes a fine condition, ancient, Jarnagin army cup with wired handle (little misshapen but still perfectly good. Original of the era knife and fork. Old Jarnagin toothbrush I used for cleaning rifle and gear. Single bladed wood and iron pocket knife (think this may either be original WW2 German or Bundes electricians knife"). As new plate from South Union Mills. Iron screw top canteen as new from South Union (I bought this out of curiosity; I'd use it for supplemental water in the field, cleaning etc. I'm sure it's fine for potable water, but I have other options. Wooden canteen is an old repro, late 70's or 80's. This is a usable canteen but needs new beeswax and a 24 hour deep soak. I used this at lots of events for years. Just needs some update. Old Jarnagin wallet and little baggy too. Anyhow, as a lot as above. Thanks for looking and feel free to ask for better pics etc. I'm gonna be selling a bunch of old kit, including two near new wall tents, other stuff over the next few months, just cleaning house.
