Rare to find because what was left after WW1 were used in the surplus trade. Also includes one shelter half for saddle, one folding tent pole for shelter half, one set of five wooden tent pegs to go with shelter half, and one white cotton shelter half rope to go with shelter half.  **Poncho and shelter half have some light small staining spots. Folding tent pole and tent pegs are solid with just a few small chips. Rope is tight frayed at the ends. Overall everything is very good to excellent** $800-$1,000
