RAAF Mk.IIIA flying goggles, boxed

SOLD

Code: G22689



Australian Stores reference L1/40.  One of the classic 'Battle of Britain' pattern goggles.  The frame is in excellent condition bar very light storage wear.  All frame screws are original and both hinge 'stops' and vent horns remain.  The velvet backing is excellent and in a very dark blue typical of Australian variants.  A small section near the nose is in a different material but this appears to be original.  The nosepiece leather is excellent.  Fitted with super new clear acetate lenses.  The strap springs are all complete/undamaged and the leather strap section is as new.  Other than the blue velvet backing and slightly different hinge stops these are near identical to standard RAF issue IIIAs.  They come in the original (unmarked) card box of issue.   A super pair of unused goggles.  Stock code G22689.
