Teddy Roosevelt-Era Surplus
Not a joke. These are serious vintage, U.S. Army infantry haversacks from the Spanish-American War era, made circa 1898. They're a dark khaki, 14" square x 4" thick, with drawstring closures. They have slender internal pockets along both inside edges and (2) 2" wide x 10" deep pockets bracketing a 9" wide x 10" deep pocket on the inside of the flap. The flap itself has a strap and buckle and will still bear its original stenciling, which may be "U.S.," crossed rifles, a cavalry-unit number, a combination thereof, or some other unique identification.

Fallout Shelter Sign
They're Back! Those of a certain age will remember being taught to crouch under their school desks in case of nuclear attack. Shortly thereafter, the gov't, in its infinite wisdom zoomed about thecityscape plastering black and yellow signs on buildings with basements to designate them as fallout shelters wherein it stored cans of water and radiation meters which were so insensitive that any reading could only mean the past tense of crispiness. We have a quantity of these signs, brand new in the sense that they have never been plastered, but antique in the sense that they are the Fifties originals. 10" x 14" , 25 ga. galvanized steel. They have a black base coat on the front over sprayed with orange/yellow reflective paint in the familiar design rendered nearby by our faithful artist. This is a true collector's item fetching $50 and up in antique stores! A tasteful addition to even the dullest basement hangout.

Authentic Government Hemp
Own a large coil of World War II-era tent rope. We know it's real army surplus from the military warehouse aura that surrounds it. This is genuine 1/8" dia hemp rope manufactured for the U.S. Army by the Burnham Co., of Gloucester, Mass. You'll get approx 400 feet of it.

Uncle Sam's Latrine! For Two!
Our very first two-passenger military-surplus field latrine! Relive those golden moments spent sitting over a slit trench in the woods with a friend. This new (no need to thank us) genuine WWII-era U.S. Army wooden latrine is painted olive drab, weighs 37 lbs, and measures 41" long x 17" x 19-1/2" high. The 18" x 14" flip-up lids are over a pair of toilet-seat-shaped openings above the open bottom. Folds flat for storage and transport. All you add is the trench. We're thinking storage bench/conversation piece for the front hall or mud room.
