WW2 USMC Foot Locker, United States Marines, Named, Fair Condition, Rare

Description: WW2 USMC United States Marine Corps Named Foot Locker, Fair Condition, Rare This is a rare find because there were only about 150,000 active duty Marines that served during WW2 out of approximately 15 million active duty service personnel from all branches. This Foot Locker was made by Ely & Walker Stannox Luggage Factory, 1410 North 16th Street, St. Louis, MO. It belonged to W.R. Hart USMC serial number 266622 which is clearly stenciled on the top and both sides. The Foot Locker appears to be made of wood and covered in metal. The Locker is still very intact and in usable condition, however, it has wear and tear and shows its age as pictured. Specifically, there is some yellow spray paint overspray on the front of it and the oval lock is missing from the middle latch and the side leather handle is broken, mostly missing, but the front leather handle is intact. On one side and there is a crack that's a few inches long just inside the top right side in the interior. There are numerous small dents and scrapes and discoloration of the original paint as pictured. There are some stains on the interior contact paper and the interior smells musty as you would expect. There is a masking tape label on one side of and a duct tape label on the other side of it, and both should be easy to remove with some Goo Gone. The hardware also shows its age. I almost forgot to mention the obvious, that it's missing the interior tray insert. At the end of the day it's amazing that this piece of WW2 history still exists and can be used.
