FOR SALE, US SINGLE BED SACKS:
(These will be all White - not Striped as in photos)

(I have placed a PDF file in this listing with stats on one, see link at bottom of post.)
These were made so straw/ hay could be stuffed into the back (via an opening) and then the opening is tied shut and they are used as mattresses. They are white in color and made from a light-weight "Canvas like" material.
One nice thing about them (when the straw/ hay is out of them) is they roll or fold up small enough to store in your pack.
No idea who made them, any tags or stamping are long since worn off. One (that I kept for myself) had a 1917 date on it. THESE ARE MILITARY SURPLUS, SO THEY ARE USED.

CONDITION:
THESE ARE WW I VINTAGE OR OLDER/ SURPLUS - THEY ARE USED. MOST WILL BE A LITTLE DIRTY AND SOME WILL HAVE SOME WATER STAINS. A GOOD SOAK IN COLD WATER, THEN WASHING THEM COLD IN A WASHING MACHINE SHOULD FIX THAT EASILY. I'D ADVISE AGAINST DRYER USE - AIR DRY THEM IS BEST. THERE MAY BE SOME SMALL NICKS, TEARS OR RIPS IN SOME OF THEM, OR A TIE TAPE MIGHT BE MISSING. ANY FLAWS SHOULD BE FIX-ABLE WITH A NEEDLE, THREAD AND TIME. I WILL EYE-BALL THEM BEFORE SHIPPING FOR FLAWS, SO THEY SHOULD JUST NEED A WASH.
$20.00 (THIS INCLUDES USPS PRIORITY SHIPPING TO YOU) Shipping only to Lower 48 States - any other destinations will be extra and you pay. Insurance is extra - you pay.
Check or Money Order to David Halseth, 1833 Turquoise Trail, Eagan, MN. 55122-1605 All Checks, sack will hold until check clears.
Returns with-in 30 days OK, but YOU PAY the return shipping. If it comes back to me worse than it went out to you, NO REFUND.
