FS: WW2 Era U.S. (& Allies) Tobacco, Bulbs, Wood Alcohol etc.

Post by AZ Jeff » Sun Jul 10, 2022 4:21 pm

Clearing the field desks of a few more odds and ends... for your considertation:

07.10.22 WW2 Souvenir Tobacco Lot (NZ).jpg


Lot of New Zealand Tobacco and Cigarettes. All packages appear complete. All of the boxed goods are attributed to Wellington, NZ and came out of WW2 USMC groupings I have purchased over the years. Includes a decent WW2 Dunhill Service Lighter (factory brown) that could stand a repaint. Back of the Park Drive box has hand written grocery notes in pencil. Nice display pieces for your WW2 set up. Lot for $50.


07.10.22 US Govt Red Cross Tobacco box.jpg


U.S. Government issue American Red Cross "Chummie Smoking Tobacco" Box. Empty box (1" x 2-3/4" x 4-1/2") with top end flap gone (possibly restorable?). Either G.I. gifts or possible P.O.W package goods. Graphics suggest WW2 era, certainly not later. Scarce stuff. $10


07.10.22 WW2 Military Wood Alcohol lot.jpg


Lot of WW2 Canned Wood Alcohol ("Fuel Tablet Ration Heating"). Four small cans and one medium. All from the same manufacturer. Overall EXC (NOS) and complete. Lot for $25.


07.10.22 Military Bulbs Lot.jpg


WW2 LM-20-2/U Bulbs (Trade # 502). Includes one intact box (10 bulbs), one dismantled box (10 bulbs) and one dismantled, incomplete box (6 bulbs). The boxes may be restorable with patience. Bulbs have some tarnish but appear intact. Lot for $15


07.10.22 Military BA-30 Battery.jpg


Military BA-30 1-1/2V Battery. Incredibly nice condition for what it is. Green metal case finish ~ 99%. Just some tarnish on the top and bottom (plated) caps only. Great display piece. $15.


Prices do not include postage. Domestic sales only please. Please PM direct if interested. Thanks for looking!

Battery is post-1957 based on the Electric Storage Battery reference (merger was in 1957). Bottom code is 0366. Probably Vietnam era accordingly.
