So I've got a Canadian Manufacture Water bottle (extremely faded, but still present, oval stamp and broad arrow mark) as well as an 1940 production Z.T. & L. ltd skeleton carrier. (and 2 other seemingly GP straps that help form a sling)
For 72 dollars (Canadian) i might have spent a little over what its probably worth, but the condition of the bottle, felt, and carrier is so good that i dont think i mind. (Plus that price is after a 10% discount i got)
Thank you so much. This video was incredibly helpful.
Excellent thank you.
Excellent
I had one that was galvanized. I suspected that it was just an iron bottle that someone had removed the enamel from, but when I removed the felt to examine it, there was an ink stamped broad arrow on the bottom of the bottle. Haven’t seen another like it, and haven’t found any information on it.
Thanks you for this new video ! Another true delight !
Thanks Seb!
