This comes from my husband's collection Craig Pickrall, one of the Co-founders of the U.S. Militaria Forum who passed away Aug. 18, 2014.  He was the most awesome Militaria collector (and husband).  He loved to collect and spend hours on the Forum assisting anyone who had a question to be answered, he schooled me the best he could about his collection and all the resources and books he had so I might have a clue, he did an awesome job with who he was working with and what he had going on at the time :)
AS STATED ABOVE, THIS WAS MY HUSBAND’S COLLECTION.  PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT I WAS NOT THE COLLECTOR AND DO NOT CLAIM ANY EXPERTISE ON MILITRIA.  THE INFORMATION I POST COMES FROM REFERENCE BOOKS HE HAD AND WHAT I CAN FIND ON THE INTERNET.  I DO MY BEST TO GIVE AN ACCURATE DISCRIPTION OF THE ITEM POSTED.  I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ANSWER ANY TECHNICAL QUESTIONS ABOUT THE ITEM POSTED.  THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING.

If I am not sure of the era the item comes from I post the item as VINTAGE.
If you bid anyway and win the item and upon receipt of the item it does not come form the era you were hoping and wishing it was from please remember: I WILL NOT RETURN SAID ITEM. Please be certain you want the item you are bidding on.
