This lot features an industrial safety harness and lanyard rope system, likely dating from the mid to late 20th century. The set includes a full-body harness constructed from durable yellow and black nylon webbing, designed for fall protection in various industrial or construction settings. Accompanying the harness is a heavy-duty steel cable lanyard, equipped with robust metal thimbles and a large carabiner for secure attachment, all stored within a utilitarian olive green canvas bag. While specific maker's marks are not clearly visible, the construction and materials are consistent with professional-grade safety equipment from its era, emphasizing ruggedness and reliability over modern lightweight designs. This type of gear was essential for workers in high-risk environments, reflecting the industrial safety standards and practices of the period. The set provides a tangible piece of industrial history, showcasing the evolution of personal protective equipment. Overall condition is fair to good, showing significant wear consistent with its intended heavy-duty use. The nylon webbing exhibits dirt, grime, and some fading, particularly on the yellow sections, along with minor fraying in areas. The steel cable lanyard has surface rust and dirt but appears structurally sound. The canvas bag is stained and worn. Due to its age and visible wear, this item is offered as a collectible or for display purposes only, and should not be used for actual fall protection.
