WPA FIRST AID KIT BOX, ID'd: This box was originally a First Aid Kit in use by the WPA. It is ID'd to Ole Gremsgard, North Dakota. There was a lot of WPA road projects in that area during the depression and Ole either worked with the WPA or came across this box in another manner. Ole died in 1948 and he is buried in Northwood, N. Dakota. I will include a little information on when he was born etc. with the box. Unfortunately the WPA FIRST AID KIT box has been painted red and Ole painted his name on the bottom. It measures about 7-1/2" wide, 5-1/4" deep and 3" high. It is empty as shown in the photos. Research on the WPA's activity in North Dakota can be done on the Internet.
WW1 COMPASS CASE, 1918 ENG. DEPT: Empty case for a WW1 compass. Marked on the front ENG. DEPT. U.S.A. 1918. The compass is missing; just the empty case is offered here. The latch works fine and the hinge is good. Some tarnish in and out as seen in the photos. It will accept a 1 3/8" insert.
