Original U.S. WWI Private Purchase Officer’s Bartlett Vacuum Food Canteen Army Pattern in Original Box

Item Description

Original Item. Only One Available. This is an extremely scarce example of a private purchase officer’s canteen in its original box, in perfect preserved condition for over 100 years. The canteen appears more as a thermos, and in fact many officers during the war used thermos-like canteens like this.

The box measures 10½ x 4¾ x 3½” and the label on the side reads:

-ONE-
BARTLETT
VACUUM FOOD CANTEEN
ARMY PATTERN
THE W.R. ANDERSON COMPANY
220 FIFTH AVENUE, NEW YORK
SOLE DISTRIBUTORS
MADE IN U.S.A.

The canteen is in pristine condition with a patent date of 1910 printed on the strap. This is a gorgeous style canteen that could still be used today, with a gorgeous khaki cover. This is the first example like it we have offered. Comes ready for further research and display!
