Physical description
Medium-sized, roughly rectangular-shaped leather camera-case, with an attached shoulder-strap. The top of the case is closed by an overhanging-flap, secured by a small, plated-metal lock. The outer-surface of the leather was originally finished in a dark mud-brown, but this has been removed/worn away in places, particularly where the case has rubbed against the carrier's clothing. A small circular metal camera-fitting (with a screw-thread on the bottom) has been threaded around the shoulder-strap. An attached paper tag on the case reads:- Year 1920. No other markings are visible.
