Did the german police have "Anschisskomode" in ww2 and how would these look like?

Yep, that´s a Police "book case". Hard to date it...........we still got such equipment in the 70ies

I don't know that they carried them. Does anyone have photos of III Reich or Prussian police carrying them on the belt? What would be so voluminous that it would require a leather case like that?

Most if not all will have loops for a pencil (under the flap or on the front).......... dono, but in Germany we don´t need a pencil for lunch

If you would use the "Anschisskommode" to carry your lunch, you would end up with an "Anschiss" from your chief
