WWII Era French Made Infantry Hob Nail Boots, Possibly Issued to Vichy Troops:  This is an Outstanding Pair of Original Period Leather Combat Boots, with all the Original Hob Nails and Leather Laces.  French Made and Marked.  Overall condition is Excellent+, with the exception of a light tear to the top back of one boot.  Would not even be noticed if these were displayed on a mannequin with leg wraps.  Everything else in in Excellent Original condition with clear markings and supple leathers. A hard to find set of Boots in this condition.  This style is the same pattern as worn in WWI, with little difference.  Nicely marked by a Lyon Maker and dated in Early 1940.  These would work equally well on a WWI Era French Infantry Soldier Mannequin, or a World War One United States African-American A.E.F. Soldier's Display.  These U.S. Troops (93rd "Black Hand" and 92nd "Buffalo" Divisions) were outfitted by the French, and regularly wore French equipment, with a mix of US and French Made Uniforms.  Original WWI Period French Made sets of Combat Footwear are Rare and would cost you 5-6 times the price, especially in this condition, so a good option. (SOLD)
