RAF type-H oxygen mask

RAF type-H oxygen mask

Code: O24094

SOLD

Size medium.  Dated 4-50 (4th quarter of 1950).  The facepiece retains very good overall shape.  The rubber is reasonably clean and remains very pliable, although close inspection shows some cracking on the harness retaining lugs, around the microphone etc.  Note that a blanking plate has been fitted in place of the inlet valve (we can supply/fit a valve if required).  The tan suede lining is complete and remains quite clean and soft.  Fitted with a type 57 microphone and a dark tan/plum coloured loom with the large early pattern 2-pin socket, type 614, 10H/18196.  The webbing harness is also good, a bit faded but retaining some elasticity.  Almost identical to a wartime example but significantly cheaper.  A very good used example.  Stock code O24094.
