Sitting on the back of my grandfather's workbench, for at least the last 25
years, was a long narrow box. He died in '78. Recently my grandmother
died, and it was time to inventory everything for the estate. In the course
of things we came to that box. The first thing that popped out the end was
a small packet that read "M2, Decontamination Apparatus bracket mounting
screws". I thought "No way ....", reached in and pulled out an OD canister,
with a T pump handle, in a bracket, prominent name plate, with crossed
flasks emblazoned, in absolutely mint condition! I'm not sure it has ever
been out of the box but maybe once. It is labeled as being an M2
Decontamination Apparatus, issued from the Chemical Weapons Service, has a
capacity of 1 1/2 qt., for use with non-corrosive decontamination agents.
It is now part of the estate and the executor is looking to value it.
Anyone have any information on this device, or its value? I haven't been
able to find anything on it.
