I bought this tarp because of its markings and the fact that Rob figures it could be a tarp for the carriers. It has the post war Canadian acceptance stamp on it with FM Co. 1960.
I tried researching the NATO stock number but all I got for a description was tarpaulin. Can anyone confirm this tarp was for the carriers?
First guess when I saw FM Co. was Ford Motor Company but it probably stands for another company. Anybody have a guess as to what it stands for?
And a box of old hockey gloves? Don’t ask why I brought these home. I have no idea myself! Neat postage stamps on the box. Can you imagine mailing a box this size for $2.95!
