| Hello and welcome to Colonel Powells outdoor emporium! An old fashioned sort of curiosity shop for the outdoor type, the bushcrafter or fellow who appreciates fine vintage outdoor kit. You will find old tools, vintage rucksacks, game backs and a host of over bits and bobs that the style conscious gent can’t really do without! So if you like a warming oaken fire, the smell of damp canvas or the feel of a quality old axe in your hand, bookmark me in your favourite sellers section and watch this space.... |
Bid freely and help keep the Powell pile out of the taxman's clutches!
' Here's a damned handy thing, an old Soviet army shelter sheet / basha. It's a simple bit of kit. nothing fancy, just a tough bit of canvas with loads of attachment points for lines / ropes and a couple of toggles on one side to attach several of these together if needed to make a bigger shelter. It's in great shape, may not have ever been issued and will serve you well. To sum up then, simple, basic and tough. Just like Lady Powell !! '
* Russian army issue Plash or poncho sheet /basha 1960's 70s issue.
* Super grade - been in store for years but hardly any signs of use
* Strong yet lightweight canvas with sturdy stitching and reinforced eyelets.
* Numerous eyelets allow for a wide range of pitching when used as a basha or tarp.
* These have been used for improvised hammocks, stretchers, and when rolled tight, even as splints.
* To enhance watershed I would suggest a treatment of some sort.
