Store > Genuine Militaria > US WW2 M1 Respirator Dust Mask - Used
Like many WW1/WW2 face coverings, these should NOT be worn - they may have carcinogenic and other unpleasant substances on them!
All dated 1942. These US Dust Masks were issued to Drivers, Armoured infantry, Tank crews etc. for use in dusty conditions along with many other uses, apparently also used by grave registration service. Choice of month/Spec number.
Perfect for:
- M1938 Tank Helmet Collectors & Displays
- Armoured Divisions Collectors
- Gifts and Presentations
- Military Enthusiasts
The issue M1 respirator is a simple design, consisting of felt material attached to the moulded rubber face piece. The felt material works as the actual filter for large particles of dust and sand. The harness is a simple four-point, adjustable system.
All the masks are used and there is small moth holing to all of them. All have printed and/or moulded specification markings.
These are beginning to become hard to find items, so the price will almost certainly go up in time! Looks great as part of M1938 Helmet and Goggles display - see picture!
