10 Liter SMM41 water container

A nice and usable 10 liter Trinkwasser water carrier.
These carriers where first introduced around 1941 probably due to the hot climate in Italy and Africa. These are becoming hard to find and are a good and secure way to take drinking water to the front. This one still has some original paint remaining but would be best restored. A new gasket or seal for the lid can be acquired through Kriegsendemilitaria.

The canister is a bit dirty but clean. It has not been used to store oil, gasoline or other poisonous substances. A good rinse with water will make this usable again!
