USAAF High Altitude A-14 Oxygen Mask, Microphone And Case, Dated 1945  

An Original US Air Force A-14 oxygen mask. This pattern of oxygen mask came into use with the USAAF in 1943 and was the standard issue for fighter pilots and bomber crews until the end of the Second World War. The mask was made by “Ohio Chemical & Manufacturing company” and is complete with its original microphone, rubber harness, quick release clip and corrugated rubber hose. One strap is broken but could easily be replaced if you have a spare strap. The mask comes with original hard pressed paper box. The box is dated Juni – 45. The box is in very good condition with light age fading and no damage.

Overall a reasonably good wartime example of this pattern of oxygen mask complete with its original microphone which displays nicely!!
