Original U.S. Army M-1903 Experimental Graniteware Cup One-of-a-Kind IMA has found a leverOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is an excellent example of a very scarce experimental cup from 1903. In the early part of the twentieth century, during the process of reviewing the equipment for use with the new M 1903 rifle, the Army experimented with a number of different patterns and material for cups. In 1903 graniteware enameling, popular with civilian kitchen items, was examined and found to be poisonous with acidic foods. Measures 2. 75
