Webbing 1937 Pattern Map Case Mk I. Maker marked "CASES MAP MK> I Z.L. & T. [Zephyr Loom & Textile Limited - Ontario] 1941 No. 2 C/|\" Warped . The snaps are corroded and the fabric torn a bit when opening. Two red grease pencils and note paper are inside. Map Case Mark 1 No. 2 This "Cases Map Mk. 1 No. 2" stencilled on the inside with the Canadian Army arrow. It was approved by LoC § B4097, approved 17 August 1940. On the side is stencilled "2/Lt E.R. Vance" The fact of this wartime date may account for its "ersatz" appearance. It was a "skeleton" design, open-sided and consisted of a web flap rivetted to a board made of Tufnol, a pressed composite board, made of resin impregnated cloth. Hinged to the top edge, a thick secondary "flap" of celluloid covered the Tufnol. Half-way down each long edge, a swivelling clip closed off the "sandwich" of celluloid / folded map / Tufnol back-piece, with two further clips on the lower edge. The flap was longer than the board, which allowed it to be secured to a pair of press studs on the back of the Tufnol board, mounted through it. The underside of the web flap was pocketed and looped for chinagraph pencils, with one wider pocket and loop for the rectangular Service Protractor. On the back of the Case, two ¾-inch buckles on web chapes were provided for a shoulder sling. The example shown here is maker marked "Z.L. & T. Ltd" [Zephyr Loom & Textile Limited - Ontario] and dated 1941.
