    Collecting tripod identification plates

    These all came from the Rock Island Arsenal salvage yard some years ago. I had a good friend that worked with people who bid on salvage lots sold by the arsenal. The demil tripods were often restored but some could not be repaired had the identification plates removed.

    I ended-up with the the small collection of data plates.

    Notice the early WW2 years the plates were brass then later on they changed to aluminum
