1940 dated Officers camp bath/sink. Frame undated, canvas sink date blurred but appears to be 1940, near unissued condition. Bath in grey canvas unissued condition and dated 1940. There is also a second bath which is heavily stained and would be OK to use to keep the 1940 one clean, this is dated 1945. Canvas seems to be in good strong condition. Near excellent condition overall (except for 1945 bath),
These sink/baths were in theory for officers and have been in existence for around a century and featured in the camping section of various large department stores which equipped expeditions, safaris and soldiers on active service. Some of these have been uploaded to the photo section of this page for interest purposes from the Gamages catalogue of about 1920-30 and the Army & Navy Stores in their 1939/40 catalogue. See photos.
These sinks are scarce and quite sought after.
