Try to read M-1943 label, need help

Hello all,

I was trying to read my field m1943's label, the one in the hip pocket.
But it is faded quite a bit.
Is there a site where i can find the manufacturers? I have something what looks like "& SONS"

can try to make a picture but its dark here and a cameraflash will be to bright..

thanks

 

Hi Robby...

I've had a little bit of luck with manufacturers of M-1943 field jackets but honestly, there's not much out there in the way of information. I work at a Good Samaritan near Ft Wood army base and we get quite a bit of old military goods through as donations from people in the area -- field jackets and caps, WWII and Vietnam-era field lockers, medals, and such, and I sell them on the internet. Anyway, is it possible to take a picture of the tag? Can you make out the order number?

 

today i took a picture, sorry about the fading, its not the camera its the label (LOL)

here it is

 

Wow, that is rough . Honestly, the only word I can make out is what looks to be "JACOB". I messed with the photo in an editor too, and couldn't make any more out...

Sorry! Do you mind me asking why you'd like to know the manufacturer so badly?

 

because im like to archive some of my stuff, that in a few year the label fading more i allready have the info. And i like the history of, f.i the type of jacket and date..
i see a faded Date (May?) 1944
P.O. no9536
and the Q.M depot on the bottom


and if i look on my lcd sidewide i can read something like "JACOB ENKELSTEIN & SONS"
or FINKELSTEIN

but anyways thanks for the help.!
