An imminent house move has reminded me that I am the owner of a canvas tent. The bag it is in bears the stencilled inscription: "AOC 045377"
This object was used for camping holidays in the 1920s and 30s by a Walsall family. I am wondering if it could be ex-army. Could AOC mean the forerunner of the RAOC and could the number possibly be that of a soldier? Should much appreciate any opinions.
I suppose it is about to become landfill. But I wish I could find a better fate for it.
