Original Item: Only One Available: This is an example of the iconic USMC M1912 Dress Blue uniform with the rare Bell Crown service cap. All buttons are retained and everything is in fantastic condition. This model of tunic and service cap are integral for any USMC or WWI US Collection.

This is a full M1912 U.S. Marine Corps Uniform, including the M1912 dress tunic, dress breeches, and the dress Bell Crown service cap, named to Private John M. Powell, USMC. The tunic and pants are both near mint, in fantastic condition with one discharge chevron on the right sleeve. The pants are stenciled “J.M. POWELL” on the interior. The Bell Crown service cap has a full sweatband, partially ripped but still intact. The cap features a black leather brim, supported by pressed paper or fabric. The red piping trim was added when the 1912 model was patterned. The EGA is affixed to the front and is period correct with both latitude and longitude lines on the globe. The chinstrap is beautifully worn in a way that compliments the entire uniform. The cap has one or two tiny moth nips but is otherwise flawless on the exterior.

John M. Powell enlisted in the Marine Corps on December 12th, 1917, likely hoping to make it to France before the war was over. He was stationed at the Naval Ammunition Depot in New London, Connecticut for most of his time in the service.

The United States Marine Corps
The decades following the War of 1812 saw the Marines protecting American interests around the world, in the Caribbean, at the Falkland Islands, Sumatra and off the coast of West Africa, and also close to home in operations against the Seminole Indians in Florida.

During the Mexican War (1846-1848), Marines seized enemy seaports on both the Gulf and Pacific coasts. A battalion of Marines joined General Winfield Scott's army at Pueblo and fought all the way to the "Halls of Montezuma," Mexico City. Marines also served ashore and afloat in the Civil War (1861-1865). Although most service was with the Navy, a battalion fought at Bull Run and other units saw action with the blockading squadrons and at Cape Hatteras, New Orleans, Charleston, and Fort Fisher. The last third of the 19th century saw Marines making numerous landings throughout the world, especially in the Orient and in the Caribbean area.

Following the Spanish-American War (1898), in which Marines performed with valor in Cuba, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines, the Corps entered an era of expansion and professional development.

It saw active service in the Philippine Insurrection (1899-1902), the Boxer Rebellion in China (1900). and in numerous other nations, including Nicaragua, Panama, Cuba, Mexico, and Haiti.

Between 1900 and 1916, the Marine Corps continued its record of participation in foreign expeditions, especially in the Caribbean and Central and South America, which included Panama, Cuba, Veracruz, Haiti, Santo Domingo, and Nicaragua.

Great little notebook
Style: COVER
I love these little notebooks. I have a case that they fit in just fine, along with a pencil. I use them primarily for my ham radio hobby for when I go to a park and need to record the contacts that I have made for the log.

Nice quality but could be better for the price.
Style: COVER
So nice quality but strange dimensions. There is no way to fold a standard 8.5x11" sheet of computer paper to fit neatly in this. So if you want to print out your own documents to take with you in this, this isn't ideal. Has 2 internal pen slots and one on the outside. Has two business card slots but I wish it had more.

Pen Holder is Very Narrow
Style: COVER
Overall this item is effective for holding a Rite in the Rain 4.625" x 7" spiral side-bound notebook. There is no zipper on this so it does not seal. It has slots for a few cards and folded or smaller items can be tucked behind the notebook in the pockets that hold the covers. I haven't used it in the rain enough yet to know if those papers I have tucked in will stay dry. The description says a cell phone could be stored in those pockets as well. I haven't tried this, but my cell phone with a cover wouldn't fit. If you have a thin cell phone it might work, but I prefer to put both covers slid into the pockets so the notebook stays open easier when using it. The outer elastic closure is tight enough without being too tight. However, the pen holders are quite tight and small. They likely work well to hold in the Rite in the Rain pen that is narrow and smooth and possibly a narrow and smooth mechanical pencil, but they are too tight for my side click mechanical pencil. I could barely slide it in and when I tried to pull it out, the top half pulled off the bottom half of the pencil. It would also be a struggle to put larger pens in and out, but the elastic might stretch to fit those that are smooth over time. Despite not being able to use the loops for my preferred pencil, I chose to keep it.

Just what I was wanting
Style: KIT
Ordered to use a a gym notebook to track my progress. It’s holding up well being exposed to being shoved in a cramped gym bag repeatedly over the last 2 months. Sweat and water hasn’t hurt it and the cover seems to be holding up well. Still looks practically brand new.
