RAF type H oxygen mask

SOLD

Code: O26158



Size large.  Dated 3-52 (3rd quarter of 1952).  The facepiece retains good overall shape although the lower edge, in particular, is curling inwards.  The rubber is a little grubby but remains very pliable.  There is general light crazing and some cracking on the harness retaining lugs, adjacent to them, around the valves etc but the overall appearance is fairly good.  The light tan suede lining is complete and beautifully soft and clean.  Fitted with a type 57 microphone assembly and a black coloured loom with 2-pin socket, 10H/14207.  The webbing harness is grubby but does retain a little elasticity.  Almost identical to a wartime example but significantly cheaper.  A reasonably good used example.  Stock code O26158.
