Offered here is an original Czechoslovak military package containing nine 26.5mm black smoke signaling cartridges, designated 26,5-Sig-crD. Intended for daytime military signaling, these cartridges produce a black smoke signal rather than a conventional illuminating flare. The original packaging is marked "10," indicating an original quantity of ten cartridges, with one missing, leaving nine total. Additional markings include "irv," associated with Czechoslovak manufacturer Zeveta Bojkovice, and "S 16/61," consistent with a 1961 production or lot designation. The packaging is also marked "nabojnice hlinikova," identifying aluminum cartridge cases. One cartridge is displayed outside the box, exhibiting an aluminum case, black identification band, and black closure.

The original military cardboard package remains intact but has been opened and exhibits age-related discoloration, staining, torn wrapping material, and general storage wear. The included cartridges are in surplus condition, with light handling and storage marks. The remaining nine cartridges have not been function-tested, and their internal condition is unknown.

Please review all photographs carefully, as they are an important part of the description and condition assessment prior to bidding.
