U.S. Army WWI M1912 Officer Summer Field Uniform

(8011MOM-C)(UPS)(RM1 Basket #47)

LIMITED ITEM. SURPLUS - PREVIOUSLY OWNED. Once they are gone, we may not get any more. Sold As Is - NON-REFUNDABLE. 

WW I (1914-18). My father purchased this U.S. Army WWI M1912 Officer Summer Field Uniform at least 25-years ago along with the rifle & powder horn (being sold separately). He purchased them from a collector who due to illness had to sell off most of his collection and wanted to see it go to someone who loved it like him. He told my father he had been collecting such items for over 50-years. Although there are many other items in his collection both WWI and WWII, this grouping he purchased as one and therefore, being sold together as exactly as we purchased it. He did not mention any modifications made to the boots or any other part of the uniform. I see no modifications made to the uniform but do believe there was one made to the boots. At some point in time a tag was added to the inside jacket, probably from the individual he purchased the uniform from but I have no way to verify that.

The Shirt/Jacket has a manufacturer tag, "By the House of Kuppenhiemer". The House of Kuppenheimer actually made these uniforms for the U.S. Army prior and during WWI. The pants do not have any tag in them at all. As far as I can tell the cloth/canvas leggins are the correct style for the era as well as the collar insignias. The Leather leggins are the correct style for the era but do look mismatched. Originally, I thought that the color of one was much darker because it has sat for years tucked inside the other, but I no longer think that is the case. I have looked closer to the stitching and they appear to me to be two different leggins but that could easily be because the soldier who owned the uniform may have taken a one from another fallen soldier because one of his may have been damaged. The Canteen, Canteen Cup and Canteen Cover match every original I have ever seen in my 45 years in the Surplus business. The Ammunition pouches match originals I have seen. The Leather Pistol Holster matches the Hoyt Holster of the era. It shows signs of wear but I cannot see the US printed on the front.

Shirt/Jacket: Only One Available. This is an excellent condition cotton (with some dried blood and dirt) summer khaki pattern 1912 field blouse for an officer in the Infantry. It features rimmed buttons, stand up collar, and WWI US & US Army Motor Transport Collar Discs with Backs in fantastic condition.

In accordance with regulations as early as 1898, all commissioned officers and enlisted men were required to wear a field service blouse made of "cotton drilling or khaki" in a light-brown color. However, this change in uniform only applied to the service uniform. For marches, fatigue duty, and everyday wear, troops were told to wear a blue wool surge, 5-button field blouse with a rolled collar. Regulations were updated between 1898 and 1911, and in August of 1911, the Quartermaster General approved the change from a stand-and-fall collar to a simpler standing version. This style of blouse was worn by Pershing's Army Expeditionary Force during their deployment to Europe in 1917.

A Puttee, derived from the Hindi word paṭṭī meaning "bandage," is a leg covering that wraps tightly around the lower part of the leg from the ankle to the knee. Also known as legwraps, leg bindings, puttees provide support and protection as a compression garment. They were commonly worn by both mounted and dismounted soldiers, often replacing traditional leather or cloth gaiters. The Puttee's included with this Uniform do not show signs of real wear. They have been wrapped up tight and tucked in the boots that came with this uniform since we acquired the set. They do have moth holes around the outer edges of the leg covering that was exposed - see pictures.

1882 Campaign/Field Shoe: It appears that during the early 1900s, the army continued to utilize the 1882 type Campaign/Field Shoe for field service. According to available data, there was a significant surplus of these shoes from the Spanish American War and the conservative QTMC chose to continue distributing the older model until a newer field/marching shoe was approved at a later date. This particular shoe shows all the signs of a used WWI shoe and came to us all together with the WWI Uniform, but the bottom of the shoe appears to have been replaced at some time with a new rubber bottom. I am not sure what brought this about or exactly when it came to be. In my opinion the leather bottom to the shoe was replaced probably in the 50's or 60's.

Shirt & Pants Manufacturer: In 1906, the company operated "The House of Kuppenheimer" branches in Boston and New York, with sales in Washington, D.C. handled by Isidor Grosner of 1013 Pennsylvania Ave., NW. During the World War I, Kuppenheimer manufactured the uniforms for the U.S. Army. By 1910, the company employed close to 2,000 men and women at shops in and around Chicago.

Gorgeous 😍
Size: 2' x 6' (Natural), Color: Champagne, Size: 2' x 6' (Natural), Color: Champagne
Absolutely beautiful!!! It is thick and luxurious, super soft and cozy. It’s really high quality and it shows. You can tell it’s natural without the burn test even from its cute little curls. All brushed (your pet brush is perfect 😉) out it looks stunning and fluffy. I got the champagne color and I love it! I don’t see any seams on the double pelt and it is substantial, not at all like it will disintegrate in a few years, but rather will become a much loved family heirloom. Well worth the investment! It is absolutely heavenly to perform yoga on by the fire 😌I love taking my slippers off and feeling the soft fur. I don’t want to get off it lol. I understand all those other customer’s kids and cats 🤣😂🤣

This is the one you want...

I bought a ‘Genuine Sheepskin Rug Double Pelt Natural White Fur 2x6’ from Amazon in 2011 for $112.49, and recently decided to recommission it in my new living room. It looked so nice that I decided to add a second rug, and was pleased to find what Amazon claimed to be the same rug still available for only $83.78. Now I’m not one of those silly folks who expects the color and/or size of a natural product like a sheepskin rug to be perfectly predictable, and my living room is large enough that I didn’t need the two rugs to match perfectly, but when the new rug arrived, I couldn’t have been more disappointed. It was about 40% smaller than my older rug, was way, way off from anything that could be called white, and looked cheap, old, and tattered. I tried to comb it out a bit to see if I could make it look presentable, but it was a lost cause. Amazon to the rescue. I returned the rug to Amazon for a full refund the next morning, and the transaction couldn’t have been simpler. And I immediately ordered the ‘Genuine Sheepskin Rug Double Pelt Natural White Fur 2x6’ shown on this page from Super Area Rugs for $119.00. What a difference! These rugs are large, plush, and super soft. The quality of these rugs is obvious, much, much nicer that either my old sheepskin rug or the ‘bargain’ rug I returned to Amazon. I was so impressed with the quality of this rug that I immediately ordered a second, which arrived this morning (it matches the other rug perfectly). My older sheepskin has been reassigned to another room because, well, it’s not in the same league as my two new rugs, which look terrific together. As is so often the case, you get what you pay for. So if you’re looking for a top quality sheepskin rug, this is the one you want.

Very nice fleeces
This is a clean, soft, well groomed fleece intended for use on a 6 foot long sofa, so bought 2. They moved too much as a result of shifting bodies on the leather couch, so will get a longer version, sewn bottom to bottom, and used each of these fleeces on both armrests, instead.

Excellent Product!!! Will purchase again!
Size: 2' x 3' (Natural), Color: Wolf Tipped
Instead of ordering a cover for reclining loveseats, I chose to drape one of these over the headrest on either end of our loveseat. Not only do they protect the leather, they also help to elevate our decor. The rugs were received in a very timely manner. They are super soft, & warming as we move into the winter months. We've had family & friends comment on how great they look. 2 of them have already ordered, & added them to their sofa/loveseat/recliner decor. Have an issue of them slipping, add some velcro in between the crook of the cushion & the back of the furniture piece. It doesn't show & will help to keep the rug in place; if your busy body.!

Perfect for sensory sensitive kids and for the pure beauty of it

After speaking over the phone with the seller, I was confident in this purchase for my SPD son. They do not use harsh chemicals or dyes in the process. It is from New Zealand and the only use in Vietnam is for shipping. My son hasn't been diagnosed yet for Autism but he is in the process. He is super sensitive to all things sensory and Amazon feedback isn't the place to give specific details on his condition but I will write that when he fist touched it- which was willingly- he smiled and asked to sleep on it. When he laid down on it and I covered him- he was calm and smiling. In the pic I provided he is calm and holding his door (his obsession is doors and windows). He even set his door down to hold the fur. For other mommies and papas with spd/autistic kids you know that willingly touching a new fabric and setting down an obsessive item is huge and super encouraging! I am so grateful to have such a quality item that is affordable for my special needs son. His older sister received one as well as is now pretending to be a sheep. Fun for everyone! The ONLY negative is that the brand/info sticker on the pelt was a pain to get off and pulled some of the felt - not damaging it but blemishing the unity -but if the skin is down it will not be noticeable. A super fun detail is that all of the fur is combed out but there were a few strands that were wavy and had a slight curl- I LOVED that. There was no odor at all which is great! I expected an animal smell which is better than chlorine or dioxin which is what competitors use in their process. There is no noticeable seam in the middle on the top where the two pelts are gathered. I am soooo satisfied!
