Beastly Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 The haversack is dated 1918, the mess kit 1918, the spoon& knife 1918 the fork 1917. The condiment can has no date a little information would be appreciated. The meat can is model 1916. The shaving kit is dated 1915 on tag don't know about the things in it. The sewing kit is military issue and has wooden spools, I don't know the era and would like any information on it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitter2k1 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Those are some great items. As for your condiment can, I don't think I have ever seen one that was stamped with a date or manufacturers information. The shaving kit looks good as well and you don't often see them dated that early. As for your sewing kit, that may be a bit newer and I am thinking possibly WWII. You may have to do a google image search for WWI and WWII sewing kits to find a match to this as I have yet to get one myself. But you have a nice set of items and your fork and spoon and excellent examples. Thanks for sharing Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
