A rare and comprehensive collection! Up for sale is a massive lot of 11 original U.S. Marine Corps extension school manuals and pamphlets dating from 1953 and 1955. Issued by the Marine Corps Educational Center in Quantico, Virginia, this set covers almost every aspect of a Marine officer's education—from staff organization and logistics to aviation principles, map reading, and field sanitation. A treasure trove for USMC historians and collectors.

An authentic slice of Korean War history! Up for sale is a genuine 1952 dated U.S. Army mechanic's coverall, made from the legendary and highly durable Herringbone Twill (HBT) cotton. This particular piece showcases an interesting field modification: while tagged as a size 36 Long, both the sleeves and trouser legs have been period-shortened and hemmed (likely by a mechanic for safety and mobility). A fantastic item for collectors, reenactors, or vintage workwear enthusiasts.

Highly collectible US Military metal ammunition box (M19A1). Features excellent original yellow stenciling indicating it held 192 rounds of .30 Caliber Armor Piercing (AP M2) ammo packed in 8-round clips and bandoleers for the M1 Garand rifle. Manufactured by GP&F. Great vintage condition. Empty.

A scarce component of the 1954 Experimental Load Carrying Equipment trials. This pouch, stamped EX 54-17, is a prototype item developed by the US Army to test new designs before the adoption of the M-1956 system. A highly desirable piece for advanced collectors of Cold War field gear development.

A museum-grade find: The Experimental Field Cargo Pack (Buttpack) from the 1954 EX-54 trials. This rare prototype is the direct forefather of the iconic M-1956 buttpack used in Vietnam. Produced in limited numbers for field testing, it features unique construction details and hardware distinctive to the 1954 experimental series.

A highly desirable, less-common manufacturer variant of the WWII U.S. Navy Mark 2 combat knife by Utica Cutlery Co. The standout feature of this piece is its unsharpened blade, which retains a beautiful original dark factory finish (the very tip is slightly rounded from period use). The stacked leather handle is tight and excellent. Complete with its original B.M. Co. fiberglass scabbard (NORD-8114 contract).

An authentic World War II U.S. Navy Mark 2 combat/utility knife, manufactured by the renowned PAL Cutlery Co. (marked RH-37). Features the classic stacked leather handle and comes with its correct, hard fiberglass Mk2 scabbard. The blade shows honest field sharpening, but importantly, the tip remains sharp and has not been rounded off. A fantastic, "salty" collectible.

An authentic, combat-used U.S. Military M1916 leather holster for the Colt M1911/1911A1 .45 caliber pistol. This piece features incredible "trench modifications": the M1910 wire belt hanger has been crudely but effectively re-stitched in the field, and two vertical slits were cut to accommodate a trouser belt. Inner flap features faded maker marks and the stencil "G.B.S". A true "salty" piece of GI history.

Genuine World War II era pack of 5 double-edge razor blades by Howard. Features striking patriotic red, white, and blue "The Nation's Blade" packaging with the US Capitol dome. Unissued New Old Stock (NOS) condition. The perfect small detail item for completing a WWII GI's personal toiletry (dopp) kit display.
