Holster, Shoulder, Colt .45, Private-Purchase, Lt. Col. Albert Mason, Jr., USAAF

Interesting genuine WWII russet leather shoulder holster, displaying no visible markings.

This private-purchase version, which was designed for some semi-automatic pistol (Colt M1911A1, Browning GP 35...), features a separate emplacement intended for carrying a spare magazine.

Complete and in quite good overall condition; snap fastener and snap hook are in working order.

Pistol and magazines are not included.

The following inscription is visible on the back of the sheath: Lt. Col. A.J. Mason O292760.
