Description

Infantryman's Rubberized Knapsack with Massachusetts Attribution. Constructed with a single large interior bag and inside flaps that fold to accommodate larger items such as a blanket or overcoat, this waterproof pack has detachable heavy leather straps with large roller buckles for adjustment that pass through rubberized canvas loops vulcanized and affixed by rivets to the back, with two straps fastening over the front to close the pack and two extending from the rear for carrying. Overall condition is excellent with some minor flaking and splitting to the finish. With the pack is a note in Mr. Kurtz's hand indicating the knapsack belonged to 1st Sergeant Joshua Morse, Co.
