RCAF / RAF 1932 pattern Mae West

SOLD

Code: MW22251



R.C.A.F. Stores reference 22c/22, R.A.F. Stores reference 22c/*55 (this is for the complete garment with kapok pads and stole, the actual reference for the 'outer' being 22c/240).  Manufactured by the Dominion Rubber Company Limited.  Size Large.  The material is in excellent overall condition retaining good colour with only minor soiling and stains.  Stencilled with 'user' instructions to the front lobes.  Complete with excellent original chromed 'DoT' zip, original buttons and buckled straps.   Fitted with webbing leg straps.  RCAF / RAF labelled and with stencilled '165 H' to rear.   The internal rubberisation appears to be complete/undamaged and this example is not shedding yellow dust as is often the case.  An excellent example.  These yellow Canadian variants are essentially the same as the ultra rare RAF green coloured 1932 pattern 'Battle of Britain' Mae West but cost significantly less.  Stock code MW22251.
