Original Item: Only One Available: This is an example of the iconic USMC M1912 Dress Blue uniform with the rare Bell Crown service cap. All buttons are retained and everything is in fantastic condition. This model of tunic and service cap are integral for any USMC or WWI US Collection.

This is a full M1912 U.S. Marine Corps Uniform, including the M1912 dress tunic, dress breeches, and the dress Bell Crown service cap, named to Private John M. Powell, USMC. The tunic and pants are both near mint, in fantastic condition with one discharge chevron on the right sleeve. The pants are stenciled “J.M. POWELL” on the interior. The Bell Crown service cap has a full sweatband, partially ripped but still intact. The cap features a black leather brim, supported by pressed paper or fabric. The red piping trim was added when the 1912 model was patterned. The EGA is affixed to the front and is period correct with both latitude and longitude lines on the globe. The chinstrap is beautifully worn in a way that compliments the entire uniform. The cap has one or two tiny moth nips but is otherwise flawless on the exterior.

John M. Powell enlisted in the Marine Corps on December 12th, 1917, likely hoping to make it to France before the war was over. He was stationed at the Naval Ammunition Depot in New London, Connecticut for most of his time in the service.

The United States Marine Corps
The decades following the War of 1812 saw the Marines protecting American interests around the world, in the Caribbean, at the Falkland Islands, Sumatra and off the coast of West Africa, and also close to home in operations against the Seminole Indians in Florida.

During the Mexican War (1846-1848), Marines seized enemy seaports on both the Gulf and Pacific coasts. A battalion of Marines joined General Winfield Scott's army at Pueblo and fought all the way to the "Halls of Montezuma," Mexico City. Marines also served ashore and afloat in the Civil War (1861-1865). Although most service was with the Navy, a battalion fought at Bull Run and other units saw action with the blockading squadrons and at Cape Hatteras, New Orleans, Charleston, and Fort Fisher. The last third of the 19th century saw Marines making numerous landings throughout the world, especially in the Orient and in the Caribbean area.

Following the Spanish-American War (1898), in which Marines performed with valor in Cuba, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines, the Corps entered an era of expansion and professional development.

It saw active service in the Philippine Insurrection (1899-1902), the Boxer Rebellion in China (1900). and in numerous other nations, including Nicaragua, Panama, Cuba, Mexico, and Haiti.

Between 1900 and 1916, the Marine Corps continued its record of participation in foreign expeditions, especially in the Caribbean and Central and South America, which included Panama, Cuba, Veracruz, Haiti, Santo Domingo, and Nicaragua.

Nice compact flat clothes drying shelf
I like this little collapsible drying shelf for my laundry room. It is compact and a great space saving shelf. I am always hunting for spaces to flat dry clothes where they wont be accessed by my toddlers or cat or dogs and this is a great solution for one off items that need flat drying. I love that it folds in so you don't always have to have a shelf sticking out. 5 stars

Great for home/office use! Worth the price
Color: Space Gray, Size: mStand, Style: mStand, Color: Space Gray, Size: mStand, Style: mStand
Purpose: For home and office use specifically: this is not meant to be a portable stand. It is sturdy and makes a great addition to any workspace. My 2018 MacBook Pro 13 inch touchbar laptop first perfectly. The space gray is almost exact. It is not adjustable but keeps the laptop at eyelevel for using at a desk. It really works well for those who would like to use it with dedicated assossories such as a mouse and keyboard. I researched for days and I’m happy I bought this because the quality is A+. It does not feel cheap and once it arrives, you’ll understand why it is so popular. I work at home and also as a university student I have struggled with neck pain from always looking down. This keeps the screen elevated so that it’s at eye level. It allows me to easily use a keyboard and mouse without having to readjust the screen. After searching for days and going through multiple stands, I believe this is the best quality stand for the price. I am glad I went with this specific model, the lines are clean, it’s aesthetically pleasing and functional. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to use their computer as a monitor with a separate mouse and keyboard. Cons: It’s not meant to be portable, and although that would be a good option for anyone wanting to take it to the library and travel; this item is heavy and sturdy. It would not travel well. Also as mentioned, the stand elevates the computer at a height where you would need a separate mouse and keyboard. It would not be functional to use your laptop to type or the trackpad while on this stand. Overall I am glad I bought this item first before another. It is a high quality assessory that I believe will get good use and last for years. Definitely would recommend.

The difference it makes!
Color: Space Gray, Size: mStand, Style: mStand, Color: Space Gray, Size: mStand, Style: mStand
With virtual lectures, I was sitting at my desk (including study time) for about 15 hours a day with excruciating back pain, so I was browsing for stands that can angle my ipad up while I was taking notes on it, so I don't have to hunch over on my desk. However, with me having to lean on the actual ipad to write, I couldn't find a stand durable enough that can support that weight without bending the stand downward. Even desk elevation platforms still required me to lean over it facing down bc of their flat designs which also caused me to have upper back/ shoulder pain. I had the previous model of the mstand for my laptop for about 3 years now, and thought why not. The mstand I previously had was still just as sturdy as the day I first got it, so I knew I wouldn't have an issue with long-term durability. I know this company offers separate stands for ipads, but I decided to purchase another laptop mstand for my ipad because the angle of it was exactly what I wanted (plus, adjustable angles are only convenient if you're using your tablet only for viewing purposes imo). This item, being fixed at my preferred angle and being incredibly well made with sturdy metals, allows me to lean on my ipad all I want to jot down notes which saves my back like nothing else. Also, a plus is that it just looks and feels amazing. It's pretty much made out of the same metal and finish as my apple products, so it's heavy-duty and doesn't shift around at all. I was especially impressed because this new design fixed all the problems I had with my previous design. The previous design has a slightly more elevated angle, which might not be as comfortable for some people, but this new design is lowered just a tiny bit to put less pressure on the back of your elbows while typing. Also, with the previous design I was always annoyed because the sticky rubber pieces to prevent the metal-on-metal scratching of my laptop kept falling off. However, with this new design, they increased the size of the rubber and thinned it out so that it can't fall off at all. Overall the design just feels a lot more durable and sleek. I will definitely be recommending this to my colleagues!

Aesthetic
Color: Space Gray, Size: mStand, Style: mStand
A great stand. Does not wobble at all. I use it for work-from-home / school-from-home / create-from-home / gaming set-up. I have three different laptops I utilize on it. A 13" MacBook Pro, A 14" Razer Stealth, and a 13" HP ProBook. All fit well. I've seen this stand reviewed as "perfect for MacBooks" but I assure you all laptops would do swell. The lack of adjustability might seem like a drawback on paper but it has sufficient height where whichever laptop placed on it is neither too high nor too low. The space under it is great for tucking your keyboard in or your mouse. There's also a hole in the back to run your cables through. I usually run my HDMI, charger and keyboard cables through here and switching laptops while having the cables still in one place makes it a seamless experience. The rubber nubs on the dock for your laptop add grip and even a little elevation for ventilation. Speaking of ventilation, the "raindrop" hole isn't purely for aesthetic but also adds ventilation. Got what I expected. Quite pleased.

The perfect MacBook Pro Laptop Stand
Color: Space Gray, Size: mStand, Style: mStand
This stand is just perfect for my 16” MacBook Pro. I ordered one in Space Gray to match the MBP’s chassis. The high quality is apparent, with its sturdy build, minimalist design, and well-engineered feel — in fact, it looks like it was made by Apple itself. When I first opened the box, I thought it might be too small, but don’t let the small footprint fool you. It fits perfectly and its height is just right for comfortable work. Highly recommend!
