Thanks Chris.
The 19 set is a Canadian Mk2 unit with Cyrillic tabs, and the carrier is a 1942 Canadian Mk1 Not sure on what make the 19 set is as I have not got it home yet.

I used to buy the post war sets made here by NYLEX , these were NOS for 2 bucks in sealed boxes marked 1956.
The whole harness was a black sealed moulded affair with a large web where the leads converged and where the brand " NYLEX 1956 " was moulded onto the web. The store had hundreds of boxes of them . The earlier type with the cloth / cotton leads were always hard to find here . I guess these NYLEX sets were made to replace the worn out WW2 headsets . The larkspur sets were yet to arrive !

1) Tropic proofing - the old cloth ones would be very prone to fungus growth. 2) Decontamination - both chemical and nuclear is simple with waterproof cabling, but very unfriendly with the fabric covered ones. (I think that's also the reason behind most rifles switching from wooden to plastic furniture.) Chris. |
