ORIGINAL BOXED SET of RAF MkVIII FLYING GOGGLES WITH TWO SETS of SPARE LENSES & ANTI-DIMM SET. RAF Stores Ref:22c/930. (Levers Optical dated May 1953) IDENTICAL TYPE USED DURING 1942-1945 WW2
A truly lovely original set of the fabled Mk8 goggles. Little worn and extremely clean with "KANE" written on the rear pads. (Another set of Mr Kane's 'daily use' goggles are shown on the next listing down. This type were in wide use in all RAF commands ( and often by the ' Sally B" crews of the US Army Air Corps ) from about the end of 1942 and were standard kit in RAF Bomber Command throughout the bomber offensive occupied Europe. Their use carried on until at least 1968 when I myself was issued with a set at RAF WOODVALE.
( Seldom seen so nice due to later use with "Triumph Motorbike" riding in the 1960's ...which is exactly what happened to mine
