WW2 - 1943 DTD. BRITISH BRASS PRISMATIC COMPASS WITH 1944 DTD. LEATHER CASE - HIGHLAND LIGHT INFANTRY OFFICER ATTRIBUTED

This example would be hard to better in respect of it retains almost all it's original black painted finish and nice bright white details to the underside inc. 1943 date.
The leather case is outstanding and retains it's light tan colour which has'nt darkened with age likely to do with the fact that until I opened the soldiers trunk it had'nt seen daylight since wars end.
Stout top fastening and shoulder strap.1944 dtd.
( His name to buyer ).
Only slight downside is there is a bubble in the liquid.
