Old canvas tent 🏕

[@northern1997.]

I just got one, tag said Woods "Holiday" Tent. Thing smells like ww2. Smells like a small sk town museum. Old guy I bought it off of says it's either 69' or 70' but google knows nothing on the matter either. Mine looks very similar but it's faded orange and white. 9 person tent. I was just trying to find instructions, do you have instructions? I struggled to assemble mine alone...but with 2 people it's easier and we had to figure out where everything went on our own

I have no instructions either, took a little while to figure it out but was able to assemble the tent by myself.

@@dirtyhands5760 yeah same. Mine reeks so I gotta get this canvas cleaner...supposed to scrub it in, rinse then repeat and it supposedly makes the canvas look and smell better. The old dude I bought it off of said to use lemon juice to kill the smell. I just seasoned mine(soaked it with water) and it's super water repellent now. Solid, quality tents hey. I did some research and these big ones (9 ppl+) sell new for 1200-2000 retail. Got mine for 180 so not bad.

@@northern1997. I sprayed mine also to make sure it didn’t leak. You can’t beat the quality of the old tents. I got this tent for free from an old lady, so I’d say I lucked out with this one.

Lol I think your wife posted on TikTok asking if it’s worth keeping saying you got it from an old lady you worked for.
