Description
A good example of an original World War 2 era shell carrier, used by the military to carry artillery ammunition. It is of typical cylindrical form covered in brown leather with a leather carrying handle and lined with canvas. It has a very nice polychrome armorial coat of arms applied to the front of the carrier. The underneath is stamped "No.57 III. B.H&G Ltd. 3-1945" and there is also a military crows foot stamped on the front of the case. The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
