Description: | This gas mask was made in about 1938 and came in a leather case. In the build-up to World War 2, and throughout the war, it was believed that German forces might use chemical weapons against the civilian population. Everyone carried their own gas mask which the Government supplied. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | living in the North East home life war | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
