OT: Flea market finds

Post by refit1701 »

I found these items at a flea market last weekend. If any of you guys can shed some light on them, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks. The titles are somwhat vague for most of this stuff.

I posted this on the "G" but since I wasn't challenging anyone's opinion of what tools are correct for a jeep, they don't seem interested.

The first-aid kit looks like the one that was mounted in the '47 Reo school bus I rode to school as a kid. I didn't see any military markings on it, so it could be a commercial/industrial kit. The other thing looks like a dipper for a water bucket. We used to have a similar dipper back in the "good" old days before we had indoor plumbing. I was glad when we got one of the white enamel-coated dippers, actually. The water tasted better than it did from the "tin" one.
