Two variations are shown of the bag, both undated as most were manufactured without a date. An exception are bags made by Simmons and these can be found dated 1917 or 1918. Note the two different style of rings on each bag for the lanyard that keeps the bag against your chest.
Each mask was issued with a small tube containing anti-dimming compound to prevent the mask lenses from fogging up.
These four photographs are of the card that comes with all Corrected English Model and Richardson-Flory-Kopps gas masks.
