Here's a neat 1st Pattern (fixed chape) M1943 Shovel Cover...
This example is marked BoyT 43 and is constructed of three different shades of OD#3 webbing. Front has a soldier's service number and the back has a stenciled unit marking that probably relates to B company, 162nd Infantry Regiment (41st ID). Overall VG with some wear, age and soiling but pretty scarce in the early configuration with all light shade components.
$30.00 plus postage. Please PM direct if you are interested. Thanks for looking!
*** SOLD

Never hurts to ask, but sadly, no. I'll update the post as "SOLD".
Good luck in your search.
