    WWII jungle hammock

    I picked one up from an estate sale today. It looks brand new, doesn't look like the ropes have ever had a knot in them, still covered in white powder, and still smells like the cage in the back of the supply room... For all I know I'm the first person to ever have unzipped it, it still had the repair pieces of screen in it and spare cord. Is there much collector interest in these? I have no idea as to rarity, value etc.

    My historical interests lie more with weapons and vehicles, I would be interested in getting it to someone who would really appreciate it.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.
