Antique Canvas Water Bag
$50.00
This antique canvas water bag, from Canvas Specialty of Los Angeles CA, (circa early 1900’s) – bags were made to be soaked in water before use, then filled with drinking water – it was not uncommon to see these bags hanging from the car during travel, allowing the winds to keep the water cool – Water was often times used to fill the over heating radiator – water the horses & mules – and was widely used in the US Military to keep our troops hydrated – This is truly a rare find, in this condition!
