Wartime dated "basic" pouches are worth buying if you see them in unissued condition and are reasonably priced. There are plenty of post war dated ones around but not so many WW2 dated versions about. The wartime versions seem to have the brass "popper" type closure tab and the post war version a "pull" type tab.
