WWII Polaroid goggles with original roll-out case marked “Polaroid, All-Purpose Goggle Kit, No. 1021.” Made by American Optical Company in Southbridge Mass. The original owner penned their name (Mullen) on the case flap (see pic).
The kit contains 1 pair of goggles with black elastic strap. The foam part of the goggles are still supple and the straps have retained their elasticity. The red plastic lens is void of cracks. Included are three spare lenses (2 green and 1 red). The case indicates there originally being a clear lens, but it appears to have been replaced with the red lens. The two green lenses match the models originally included with the kit (Polaroid Glarefoil JC30FAP and Polaroid Glarefoil JC15FAP).

The flag measures 25 inches by 36 inches and is made from silk. It is in very delicate condition, as are most silk battle flags from this era. There are a few separations in the silk. The flag appears to have been a souvenir for a US GI because it is marked in red ink, “Sipan (sic) 1943, Sam Deluca, 37817864.”
I was able to locate Deluca’s enlistment record in the National Archives.
