Pair WWII USGI Khaki Shelter Halves Dated 1942 - Matched Pup Tent Set Black Buttons

Asking Price: $145.00 (Or Best Offer)
Condition: Used / Very Good (Authentic Field Wear)
Description:Up for sale is a fantastic, structurally complete matched pair of original WWII USGI Army/USMC canvas shelter halves. Both panels feature the desirable early-war Khaki (OD#3) color and are equipped with their original, correct black metal flat-buttons. When buttoned together, these two panels form a complete, period-correct two-man frontline pup tent.
Panel 1 Details:
- Manufacturer: Tweedie Footwear Corp.
- Date: 1942 (Stamp is lightly smudged but legible)
- Condition: Excellent, near-mint condition. No rips, tears, or hardware defects. Exhibits only mild storage dust and light, authentic field grime from minimal outdoor use.
- Accessories: Includes one original guy rope showing the characteristic greenish anti-mildew treatment tint of the era, with stitched ends to prevent fraying.
Panel 2 Details:
- Manufacturer: Langdon Tent & Awning Co.
- Date: 1942
- Condition: Very Good, field-used condition. This panel shows signs of actual military use and features period-authentic reinforcing stitching around a number of the buttonholes, executed in Olive Drab (OD) green thread with a rugged khaki material backing reinforcement. No holes or major defects. Slightly more field-soiled than the Tweedie unit, matching its history of outdoor service.
- Accessories: Includes one matching original guy rope.
Why Buy This Set?
Finding two 1942-dated canvas panels that match perfectly in color and hardware is a rare treat.

The black metal buttons are all present, the canvas duck material is strong, and the fabric is completely free of dry rot. Perfect for WWII living history displays, tactical reenactments, militaria collections, or a rugged vintage bushcraft shelter.
