M-1938 Dispatch Case, Mounted

US Army M-1938 dispatch case for carrying maps and documents. This one was designed for mounted troops and has an extra loop and carry strap on the back. The back is stamped BOYT 41. The Khaki canvas is in solid condition but the bag appears to have been issued. There are stains on the front and back and the reinforcing board that is sewn into the back appears to be warped and cracked internally. All of the brass components are solid, but one of the renforcing rivets is missing. Otherwise the bag is in good condition.
