Product Description
Â
This is an exceptional example of a US Army Cover Protective Individual, dated 1941, still sealed in its original packaging. Issued during the early years of World War II, this item was part of the Army’s standard chemical defense gear, designed to shield individual soldiers from chemical agents and environmental exposure.
The packaging remains fully intact and unopened, preserving the historical integrity of the piece. The front of the protective cover is clearly marked with full application instructions, government property designations, and a 1941 production date. Additionally, it features the manufacturer's contract number, a key detail confirming authenticity and traceability to a wartime government order.
The print is legible and unfaded, making it an outstanding display item for collectors of WWII militaria or military chemical warfare gear. The material shows no signs of damage or deterioration, and the edges remain crisp—a rare condition for a disposable wartime item over 80 years old.
Perfect for historians, reenactors, or collectors, this 1941 Protective Cover captures a unique aspect of soldier preparedness in the early WWII period. A seldom-seen artifact, especially in sealed and marked condition, it represents a tangible piece of the home front’s production efforts and battlefield readiness.
