It was manufactured in 1942 and is marked \"MORTON M. ROSE\". Interestingly, Rose was actually the senior partner of the Philadelphia Parachute Packing and Manufacturing Company of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Due to his leading of production contracts, the company's haversacks were marked explicitly with his personal name rather than the full company name to save stencil space and better track accountability. This haversack retains its original, matching mess kit pouch (also known as a \"meat can\"). A laundry number was applied and then subsequently crossed out on the reverse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProvenance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrivate Collection, Sarasota, Florida\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n        body {\n            font-family: 'Futura', Arial, sans-serif;\n            background-color: #f4f4f4;\n            margin: 0;\n            padding: 0px;\n        }\n\n        .condition-report {\n            max-width: 767px;\n            margin: 0 auto;\n            background-color: transparent; \/* Transparent background *\/\n            border: none; \/* No border *\/\n            padding: 0px;\n        }\n\n        .scale-container {\n            display: flex;\n            justify-content: space-around; \/* Changed from space-between to space-around *\/\n            position: relative;\n            padding: 0px 0;\n        }\n\n        .scale-item {\n            display: flex;\n            flex-direction: column;\n            align-items: center;\n            position: relative;\n            flex: 1;\n            text-align: center;\n        }\n\n        .scale-label {\n            font-size: 16px; \/* Font size updated to 16 *\/\n            color: #999; \/* Lighter color for \"Fair\" and \"Excellent\" *\/\n            margin-top: 10px; \/* Increased space below the dot *\/\n        }\n\n        .highlight {\n            font-size: 18px; \/* Increase font size *\/\n            font-weight: bold; \/* Make the text bold *\/\n            color: #333; \/* Darker color for \"Good\" *\/\n        }\n\n        .dot {\n            height: 12px; \/* Larger dot *\/\n            width: 12px;\n            background-color: #999; \/* Lighter dot color for \"Fair\" and \"Excellent\" *\/\n            border-radius: 50%;\n            display: inline-block;\n            position: relative;\n            z-index: 0; \/* Ensure dots are above the line *\/\n        }\n\n        .highlight-dot {\n            background-color: #333; \/* Darker dot color for \"Good\" *\/\n            height: 12px; \/* Increase dot size *\/\n            width: 12px;\n        }\n\n        .line {\n            position: absolute;\n            top: 10%; \/* Adjusted top property for better alignment *\/\n            left: 5%; \/* Shortened the line *\/\n            right: 5%; \/* Shortened the line *\/\n            height: 2px;\n            background-color: #eaeaea; \/* Lighter line color *\/\n            transform: translateY(-50%); \/* Adjust for perfect centering *\/\n            z-index: 0; \/* Line behind the dots *\/\n        }\n\n        @media (max-width: 600px) {\n            .condition-report {\n                padding: 0px; \/* Reduced padding for mobile *\/\n            }\n\n            .scale-container {\n                flex-direction: row; \/* Ensure items are in a row *\/\n                justify-content: space-around; \/* Bring items closer together *\/\n                padding: 10px 0;\n            }\n\n            .scale-label {\n                font-size: 14px; \/* Smaller font size for mobile *\/\n            }\n\n            .dot {\n                height: 12px; \/* Smaller dot for mobile *\/\n                width: 12px;\n            }\n\n            .highlight {\n                font-size: 16px; \/* Slightly smaller font size for mobile *\/\n            }\n\n            .highlight-dot {\n                height: 12px; \/* Slightly smaller dot size for mobile *\/\n                width: 12px;\n            }\n\n            .line {\n                top: 23%; \/* Adjusted top property for better alignment on mobile *\/\n                left: 10%; \/* Shortened the line *\/\n                right: 10%; \/* Shortened the line *\/\n            }\n        }\n    \u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"condition-report\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"scale-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"line\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"scale-item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dot\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"scale-label\"\u003eFair\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"scale-item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dot highlight-dot\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"scale-label highlight\"\u003eGood\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"scale-item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dot\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"scale-label\"\u003eExcellent\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis haversack is in good, used condition.
