When John Pierson sent us these photos, back in 2007, it was first glimpse any of us had seen of a surviving example of this equipment. This set has been together since it was new. Although neither the Rucksack nor Haversack are present, note the Bayonet frog (the only example of this Frog we've noted so far). This set belongs to an American collector friend of John's, who wishes to remain anonymous. Photographs © John Pierson, 2007.
