WW11 Civilian Gas Mask in Coventry
9th May issue dated Civilian Gas Mask Original Box of Issue. Name of person issued to in Stourbridge Good condition for its age although rubber is cracking (see pics), which is a problem with these. With regard to the filter canister, the filter could be either resin impregnated wool or asbestos wool. I have no way of checking this is the case so treat as though it is the latter and under no circumstances should this be worn! Display only. Further info on asbestos in WW2 respirator canisters can be found here: http://ibasecretariat.org/porton_down_rep_.pdf Please study the photos for item condition, please remember this item is 79 years old. All photos are taken in natural light and are of the item you will receive.
