Early WW2 US Army USGI Airborne OD3 M1936 M36 Musette Bag WATERPROOF: $42.00
ThisEarly WW2 US Army USGI Airborne OD3 M1936 M36 Musette Bag is in fair condition overall and shows clear signs of age, storage and wear. The bag is ink stamped on the inside of the top flap "ATLANTIC PRODUCTS CORP" and was most likely made in 1942 or slightly earlier. This is a very early production example of the M1936 bag in the light OD3 shade and is made a noticeably stiffer and heavier material. Early M1936 bags incorporated a plastic lining sheet between the layers of standard canvas and this gave the bag not only better waterproofing ability but a heftier weight as well. As this production process was complicated, it was quickly omitted as America entered full-scale Wartime production. The canvas is strong and the color is rich, no signs of fading or staining are present. No rips, tears or holes can be found. The canvas is worn thin in many areas and stained in just as many places but it still manages to offer an interesting display. All metal hardware is present and functions as you would expect however it shows strong signs of age. This hard to find Musette Bag would be a welcome addition to any advanced US Web Gear collection despite it's obvious flaws. Please examine the photographs carefully for the best description of condition.
