Experimental British / Iraqi Contract 44 Pattern Webbing Belt
An anomalous webbing belt from an unknown origin. After some speculation and conference with other collectors, it has been determined that it is most likely from one of two origins:
An experimental 44 Pattern webbing belt from a British trial
- or -
A 44 Pattern-style belt, made in Britain under Iraqi contract for their forces
The steel and brass hardware are of good quality, unlike other Iraqi-contracted belts that are known. The hardware and fabrics are made in a style consistent with other British-made webbing.
Nevertheless, it is a rare and unusual webbing item.
