Details
Condition: Used – like new
Tent type: Camping tent
Tent sleeping capacity: 2
This is a vary rare vintage Canadian war time 1943 tent made by Woods in Ottawa. The picture of the tent set up is not mine but the rest are. It is to wet out now to set it up and not get it dirty and damp. As you can see it is in remarkable condition with wooden poles, stakes and original cords. Perfect for reenactment. There is next to no information on the internet about this tent other than extremely rare and probably of British design officers tent. Feel free to share any info you might have as well.
Located in Kelowna BC.
