Militia Period/WW1 Canadian Mess Tins and Cover
A fine kidney shaped mess tin with the rare inner tray. This one includes a locally produced chocolate brown cover with snap fasteners. I think this ensemble predates WW1 as it has no maker marks or acceptance stamps and the handle attachment bails are much heavier than war dated examples. I think this was originally used with the Oliver Pattern equipment.
A rare item with the cover.
