Wooden map plotting board or Kartenbrett with rare issue carrying bag

A very nice original wooden map plotting board or Kartenbrett as used by officers in the field. These wooden boards where used by officers to observe maps without making them wet or dirty. These where vital in the field and scarce to find! The map plotting board features a large celluloid cover on the inside to prevent the maps getting wet and to mark maps without drawing on the map itself. The map plotting board comes together with its rare issued carrying bag which is a perfect fit for the board. The carrying bag is manufactured out of some type of impregnated fabric to keep the board dry. The bag is nicely maker marked but this is sadly not completelyreadable, the maker was located in Kassel and the bag has been produced in 1925! The bag shows some reinforcements and repairs which are all period done and only give this set more character. This set would look amazing swung over the shoulder of a combat officer. Very nice untouched Kartenbrett complete with the original carrying bag which would be impossible to upgrade!
