Aust Manufactured Compass
I've had a military prismatic compass since I was at university - it was my first (and best) field compass during my geology and geography degree courses. It has the correct '37 Patt compass pouch with the felt lining, and the issue lanyard, all added after I pensioned the compass off as being too valuable to chance losing it in the scrub.
Compass was made by E Esdaile & Sons in Adelaide, South Australia. E. Esdaile & Sons began manufacturing scientific and optometry equipment in 1891.
The compass pouch is by Zephyr Loom & Textile (ZL&T), so Canadian.
