A WWI era, Khaki Model 1910 cartridge belt made by “L.C.C. & Co.” and dated 7/1918. A WWII soldier penned the following inside the belt, “Holbrook, 39001660, Co. C, 753 MP.”
I was able to find Holbrook listed in the National Archives.
The belt is in structurally sound condition with all working snaps and no tears or dry rot. There are two soiled areas (see pic). Otherwise, a very nice clean belt.
Price: SOLD
