Canteens

[gnadenlose]

Look likes luftschutz canteen, is it?

I've never seen one so it's hard to tell

[gnadenlose]

The only parts marked are the "male sides" of press buttons: "LORD" on front, "WALDES PAT. L. 3" on back.

Ciao centuria, you have an interesting book as can I see, the pictures are really interetsing....what book is it?

[uscob]

here is what is remains of 1200 canteens I bought back in 2004 and little over 400 of them were unissued 1ltr bottles most of them had the covers still on them.

they were all stacked up in a horse stall in Austria ! the crappy part is she told me she had a stall full of helmets that she sold the year before to a gent out of Germany.

Hey, like my canteens I bought 22 Years ago from the Red Cross in Hamburg. I had around 800 from Imperial and TR Germany of maybe every Pattern. Was funny to carry them back to Berlin in a VW Golf. The DDR Borderguards didn't believed what they saw. Carried w/o boxes up to the ceiling so you could see them through the windows. Was a funny tour. I visited the aunt of my girl in Wedel on that Trip, she was the neighbour of Matthias Rust who landed his Plane on Red Square in Moscow shortly before I met the Place. At that Time we couldn't visit him as he was imprisoned in Russia.

Together with another GJ canteen came this brown cup. I've never seen one like that before: it's made of some kind of low quality presstoff, it's matte and the material contains some red stuff (hopefully noteable on the picture). The letter/numbers in the "umbrella" are S and F7. So what is it made of?

One more question: what do the numbers INSIDE of some bacelite cups mean?

[Fritz84]

Hello!!
S is the code of the material used
in this case: Phenolic resin whit wood filler (Sawdust)

F7 is the code of factory, but unfortunately,
on my list is missing....

the number within could always be the code of the factory
or a serial number to be able to detect a bad batch

We are still studying

Thank you, Mattia! This F7 could also be P7, it's hard to read.

[Fritz84]

Thank you, Mattia! This F7 could also be P7, it's hard to read.

O,P,Q,R,S,T apparently not been used on objects in bakelite
most likely F7...

[Fritz84]

sorry, to be precise...
the letters O,P,Q,R,S,T were not used to identify manufacturers
