Provisional
Supply offers the two most widely issued canteens used during the war. These
are the New York Depot and Philadelphia Depot canteens. A third depot in
Cinncinnati issued canteens as well and these were virtually identical to
the Philadelphia Depot issue canteens. All of our canteens are smooth sided.
This is the New York
Depot
variant canteen. It is properly covered in jean cloth and features the
correct leather strap with proper japanned roller buckle. This model was
issued with
#16 1/2" single jack chain stopper retainer
attached to the sling loop. **All canteens can also be purchased with a cloth
strap as did many original later war models.
Price: $52.00
Here is the Philadelphia
Depot variant canteen. It too is properly covered in jean cloth and
utilizes a cotton strap. The stopper retainer is of waxed twisted string as originals.
