'Life-saving Waistcoat, Stole Inflated'. Stores ref. 22c/447. Size medium. Stores ref. 22c/447. Size Medium. The cloth is in excellent condition, retains good strong colour but is a little soiled. The Mae West has had three of the leg straps removed but retains grab handles, tying tapes, buttons, inflation lever flap, skull cap/heliograph pocket, lanyard and toggle, flotation lamp pocket and fluorescene flap and strap. Good original brass 'Lightning' marked zip. Labelled with War Department broad arrow markings. In general this is a super example showing very little use and only let down by the removal of the leg straps which would be fairly simple to replace if desired. Stock code MW16703.
