Strap end marking

[Jan B]

Talking about a mint, rare canteen ! Wow, thanks for the additional shots Ade...
Indeed, LUX is mostly found on these webbing-straps. I wonder if there are any other makers codes on these straps beside the 'common' LUX-marking?

Cheers

Thanks Jan, I really want to get a cup for this. I saw one at Beltring last year and failed to buy it

[Gary Wood]

Ade,

what sort of water botle cup are you looking for?, I have a few spare I think will have to check the box,

cheers,

Gary

[Adrian Stevenson]

Hi Gary, the type I am looking for is the small bakelite cup. Se Willi's post No.5 for the type I mean.
Cheers, Ade

Hi All,

Here is my '39' dated canteen.
I think it is in pretty good shape for an early one.

Regards,

Steve.

Very nice one, Mike.
Is the strap LUX-marked too?
