RARE GENUINE COLD WAR VINTAGE CZECHOSLOVAKIAN CIVIL DEFENCE WATER BOTTLE & MUG

ALUMINIUM WATER BOTTLE & MUG IN A FELT & LEATHER CARRIER

SERVICEABLE CONDITION - INSECT DAMAGE / HOLE TO REAR OF COVER

This is a genuine Cold War vintage Czech Civil Defence issue water canteen, clearly based on the WW2 German Army water bottles it comprises a painted aluminium water bottle with cork stopper fitted into a felt cover with tan natural leather strapping which holds a small aluminium cup on the top. The bottle is designed to be worn on eaither a belt through the strapping or attached to kit via a small snap hook.

CONDITION: Canteen looks to be unused BUT it has been in storage for over 50 years and there is insect damage to the felt cover which has led to a hole in the rear cover (See photos), otherwise the set is perfectly serviceable, it is just not mint! Photos show the ACTUAL set you will receive.

Last of my stock hence clearance price, these are old-world-quality vintage military canteen sets and are very hard to find in the UK, must be of use to someone!
