Waffen-SS 'Totenkopf' marked leather case. The case most likely was used to carry some type of optical- or measuring instrument. The interiour-frame of the pouch is regrettably missing. The leather pouch is approximately sized 22x16x16 cms. The case is nicely maker marked by the company of 'J.M. Eckart' in Ulm a.D. and dated 1940. On top of the case a skull has been marked, most likely indicating use within the Waffen-SS 'Totenkopf' (SS-TV) units. This marking has been found on various leather equipment, some of which have been dug-up on the Eastern Front battlefields. Interesting piece of equipment!
