Oak Transit case
greetings, I have had this case for years and not, as yet, been able to identify it's purpose?
Beautifully crafted with cast bronze hardware.
the 2x hinges & clasp are stamped R^L
there are 3 instances of hard wood inserts that have been stamped, one with the Broad Arrow.
The one at the rear appears to have a name O.BROWN. which I found weird.
HM and a serial number.
The inside of the lid has a round relief bored in which leads me to think, Artillery Sight?
10" x 15" x 21" high
any insights appreciated.
cheers,
Brent.
