Code: O23259

SOLD

A museum quality reproduction Type D oxygen mask produced by Steve Silburn.  Superb attention to detail with accurate cloth and a chamois lining interfaced with calico, a stiffener and rod solder above the 'nose'.  The microphone mounting ring is stamped with the stores reference number 6D/117 and has a sprung loaded brass hinge at the bottom to accomodate all microphone variants for the mask.  A sprung loaded retaining pin at the top secures the microphone (when fitted).  This example has also been fitted with a pair of reproduction 'face protectors' in order to secure the mask to a Type B helmet.  This is the same as those masks supplied to The RAF museum, Imperial War Musuem Duxford and for the recent film 'Dunkirk'.  In excellent unused condition.  These masks are a fraction of the cost of an original.  Stock code O23259.
