Been shoppin!

Not much on this afternoon so decided to wonder into town and peruse the junk/vintage/antique shops and came across a very nice canvas and leather rucksack with a metal frame circa 1950's for which I paid £15. I also bought a cigar box for my home made floats, £4, and a selection of flys in little plastic box's for £2 a box! So happy with my purchases I felt I had to share them with you........sad or what? I think I'm becoming a bit of a geek!
Hope you like the pics.....

Now that's what I'd call a great result

Nicely done. That rucksack is a bargain.

I agree, lovely rucksack, your floats look rather nice too.

That's a Polish army rucksack I think. I used one for about 5 years, it was a really good fishing ruck-sack, but the leather straps (for doing up the main flap) got very worse for wear and both of them broke in the end. Make sure you keep it dry, the bottom will tend to get damp and then stay damp...

Yes, it looks military but the makers label says "BB Crests Deluxe...All British"
Maybe BB made them for the armed forces?
