SOLD

Stores reference 22c/72.  Grey rubberized cotton stole for the 1941 pattern Mae West.  The material is in excellent  supple condition and remains fairly clean.  The oral inflation tube is quite flexible and the valve opens/closes freely.  Comes without circlip, inflation lever or CO2 bottle.  These may be available to purchase separately.  Air Ministry King's crown marked with clear 9/42 manufacture date mark.  This stole would probably inflate and hold air but we advise against doing so orally as this will introduce moisture which can lead to internal rotting of the fabric.  A very good '+' used example.  Stock code MW27193.
