Antique French or Swiss Army Leather Ammunition Ammo Bullet Pouch

About the Item

Antique early 20th century French or Swiss leather ammunition / artillery officer / military gendarmerie pouch / cartridge box. Well made, dating from the early 1930s. Made of durable and pliable heavy duty leather; saddle stitched all the way around the two pouches which are individually stitched to the backing. The closure of each pouch is by a stitched and brass-riveted split leather tongue which fits snugly over a brass stud on each pocket. In the back are three belt loops, a D ring and a buckle. The inside of each pocket flap is ink-stamped, but illegible. Excellent vintage condition. Light corrosion around the brass. Small dings and scuffs to the leather. An array of water spots to the top of the back side, as shown in photos.
