Luftwaffe M35 Map/Dispatch Case
Luftwaffe M35 Map/Dispatch Case (Meldekartentasche M35). Map/dispatch cases were issued on a limited basis to specifically designated personnel such as unit commanders, messengers, and observers. The M35 map/dispatch case was based on the Weimar era Reichsheer pattern map/dispatch case with minor variations. The M35 map/dispatch cases were issued with assorted map reading tools, instruments and accessories. The natural tan leather interior of the case has two compartments with a central leather separating panel. The chocolate brown leather map case is faintly maker marked. It is nicely marked with 'I./Fla.Rgt.61' (Flak-Regiment 61). The map case is marked 'L.B.A.B.37' (Luftwaffe Bekleidungs Amt) as well. Nice original map case in good condition!
