[reneblacky]

Love it, I've never owned a Western Australian made item from WW2!
Very Rare maker I'd have to say

I did see that one Luke, A bit rich for me to.
But I must admit I would pay a few extra bucks to have one in my collection that's for sure. It's the single piece of outer clothing I need in my collection.
Plenty of 1950's double breasted one's about but not to many singles.
Yours is Mickey Mouse I reckon mate.

G'day fellas,
Two pair of service boots, one anti-static and one general issue non cleated.

Anti-Static pair V874.
Oliver boots are made in Ballarat and have been since 1877.




This pair of boots have two S codes, issued mismatched as they seem to be a pair?
S307 and S311. Could be the same maker? Rossi boots have been made in SA since the 1910 I believe so at least one of the codes could be this manufacturer.




I have asked Tassies Blundstone rep to have an ask around their head office in Hobart to see if she can locate their T code. She is not optimistic but worth a crack.

The quest continues.
