Description
This is an exact reprint of the Sears, Roebuck and Co. 1918 Military Equipment Catalogue, produced at the time for "Officers of the United States Army, Members of the Aviation Corps and officials of Military Schools". The catalog shows the offerings of the period from collar insignia for $.15 right on up to a Colt 30-caliber Model 1906 tripod-mounted Machine Gun for $865.00! All sorts of uniforms and parts are offered including a great selection of "Furnishings for Aviators". Have you ever seen a WW1 Aviator's Life Preserver? It's pictured in this catalog! The catalog is printed on heavy paper stock with a card-stock cover in its original size of 8-1/2" by 11". It is in its complete 20-page format except for the order blank and back cover illustration (these spaces were used for advertising by the recent publishers). The Catalogue is filled with line drawings of accouterments such as Mills webbed holsters and interlock buckle webbed garrison belts. It is a reference book that no World War I collector should be without. V/IEX LABX
