Item Description
Original Items: Only One Set Available. Now this is a very attractive, set of US Military flight gear from WWII.
The items in this set:
- Commerical WWII USAAF Customized White Leather A. BUCO flight helmet made by JOESPHY BUEGELEISEN CO. DETROIT: Size small (US 6 3/5), offered in very good condition with customized ink pilot wings to front and "FLIP"
- Orange Tint A-N 6530 Goggles: AN-6530 Goggles were produced during World War II as eye protection for United States Army and Navy flight crews. In 1943, the AN-6530 design replaced as standard the nearly identical USAAF B-7 goggle produced by Chas Fischer Spring Company of Brooklyn, New York. Contracts for AN-6530 goggles were awarded to Chas Fischer Spring Co. and American Optical. The AN-6530's frame is nickel-plated brass and steel. Construction consists of stamped and milled pieces, soldered together. Milled brass pieces form the bridge and ferrule/strap lugs, and pieces of stamped sheet steel form the frame to hold the facepad and lenses. The ferrule / strap lugs are split lengthwise to facilitate removal and insertion of the lenses and rubber facepad. The lugs are secured closed by a salt-blued or parkerized and knurled carbon steel ferrule. Solid, worn condition with the elastic head strap degraded.
