Description from the seller
Set of two old American military cotton canvas suspenders in khaki, M3/Kerr type, short model intended notably for Thompson submachine guns.
Each suspension features a two-part construction with hooks, riveted plates and metal adjustment loops.
This short configuration is consistent with the suspenders used on the Thompson M1928A1, M1 and M1A1.
No maker's mark or dating has been identified.
Dimensions recorded without disassembly and excluding hardware:
– Long part: about 86 cm
– Short part: about 30.5 cm
– Width: about 3 cm
– Total weight of the lot: 307 g
Old condition with pronounced wear: dirt, stains, discoloration, frayed fibers, oxidation and wear of the hardware.
Close-up photos show their condition precisely.
Model identification is solid, but attribution to World War II remains prudent due to lack of markings or documented provenance.
Sold together, as photographed, as collectible items.
