Vtg Brown Leather US Military Issue Pilot Briefcase Flight Bag Type VIII:
$59.00

This handsome brown US Government issued Pilot Flight Briefcase Bag is made from a heavy leather (5 lbs). It has 3 large compartments and also 2 small flat pockets all on the inside. I don\'t notice anything missing. The stitching appears to all be intact, but as you can see from the pictures, the leather is worn & scuffed in areas (see photos). The clasp (Presto Lock Co) works well, but unfortunately I have no key. Still, overall a great, sturdy vintage military case that has aged quite well!

The stamping on the interior reads as follows: (as best as my eyes can read it!)
