Has the wooden pin bag and wooden mallet survived with your tent as well, Colin?

David,

There is a one line space between WIRELESS and VALISE.

The valise is more of khaki shade, but the tent has an orange hue (the images were taken in very different light conditions).

I don’t have poles, pegs, or the peg bag, but I do have a mallet that I obtained separately from the tent.
