Vintage Leather STEBCO Pilot Bag Briefcase w Compartments Yale Lock & deals Two Keys, USAF Pebble Grained Leather Military Briefcase by STEBCO
This Vintage Pebble-Grained Leather Briefcase still has the identification slip of the last USAF pilot to use it! It has dividers. One seems to zip in, but this is currently unzipped/separated from the bag. I am not sure if it can be repaired, but this piece, which was photographed separately, has several snap pouches and a pencil and pen holder. The leather is is vintage condition with some scuffs and wear to the finish as shown in the close ups. Please view photos, they are part of the description. I have not conditioned it, but will leave that to the collector. The metal latch by YALE is in overall great shape, with a patina. The best part is that it has two working keys!!!!! The case is is missing one rounded leather foot and tends to lean just a little when set down randomly, but is easily balanced if placed with intention (and probably when loaded up). Because of the USAF nametag in the front compartment with the clear window, there's no doubt this was used for military purposes, but I do not know if it is US Military Standard. When I removed the nametag the deals leather is blank behind it. A great piece of history, this handsome case can be used as intended or for decoration.
