I acquired a storage unit several years ago from some family friends, literally filled with camping equipment. I have been able to make use of a great deal of it, however I never really investigated the gigantic body bag sized bundle I just referred to as "Jimmy Hoffa". After finally unrolling this thing, I discovered it was a two room Morsan canvas tent. After a bit of research, I found that some people have a real affinity for these things, and they were described as some of the best tents ever made. Setting it up proved to be a bit challenging, but its still in great shape. What a classic... If anyone could tell me if there really is any value to this thing, or if there may be information regarding it, I would greatly appreciate it..

Re: Anyone have any information about Morsan canvas tents?
I'm interested in the tent. What size is it? -
Would love info too. Can't find info anywhere. Can't figure out why it has bungee like things near the top. Or how to set up. Can't find an image anywhere on what it might look like set up. It also has 2 shorter fatter poles that say for low end and high end. With multiple holes in them. Any info where to find pics or how to find what one of the 300 styles they made would be helpful.Comment
