Ben Hur Tarp

Post by halifaxgroup »

The Ben Hur with the First Aid markings on the lead page has a really nice tarp. Is that NL, WeeBee, Beechwood or Friday's?

Hi Paul

I believe Bill purchased it from " New Life Canvas"

I'm sure you will also hear from him as well.

Hope this helps

That is a 50's era OE tarpaulin that Joel Gopan was good enought to sell to me.
