Original U.S. WWII 1944 Dated Army Officer Folding Field Desk by Beals & Selkirk Trunk Co.

Original Item. Only One Available. This 1944 dated Army Officer table top fold out desk with original paint is in overall fine condition. Drawers function and hinges operate smoothly. This example is missing the top left drawer and typewriter. This is a wonderful portable mobile desk. The desk retains its brass oval data plate which reads:

STOCK NO. 24-D-135
TENT SPEC. CO D. NO.1018-27-10
TYPE II
CONT. NO. W-11-009 QM-18600
CQMD 1-8-44
THE BEALS & SELKIRK TRUNK CO.

The trunk measures 20 ½” x 15 ¾” x 14 ¼” when closed. $1.50 is written on the side, which could easily be removed. The leather carrying straps are heavily worn, and we would not recommend carrying it by these straps, as they break very easily.

A great service-used example, just missing the top shelf and typewriter. Comes ready for further research and display.
