In the last few months I got my French 75mm mle/97 back from temporary loan to the MacArthur Memorial. While the gun was on loan for the WW1 Centennial, I acquired a French manufactured 75mm mle/97 Limber dated 1917. The limber has the original horizon blue paint on the interior of the ammunition box and is over painted with original camouflage. I believe it is the only French manufactured mle/97 Limber in North America. I also do not know of any other mle/97 Limber with original paint still intact. Please let me know if you are aware of other examples with original paint. In the last few days, I finally got the limber and gun into a new display building and photographed them together.
