An old friend of mine has this old pouch/pocket/container thing with an eagle on it. I think it might have come back with his grandfather who fought in Europe during WW1 - he also showed me a small bomb - the small type tossed from aeroplanes - that his grandfather also brought back, which was very cool except the comment 'I'm pretty sure it's deactivated... I think' lent some frisson to the experience
Anyway, I took some photos of it in the hope that somebody here might be able to tell us if it's first WW or older German or Austrian - or otherwise?
If nothing else, it does feel genuinely antique when you have it in hand. I don't think it's a modern repro of anything.
Thanks in advance,
Peter
