Original German WWII Cavalry Packtasche 40 Saddle Bag- This saddle pack, designed for personal storage, features medium brown supple leather. Complete with all straps, loops, and saddle mounting hooks, it showcases only light storage wear. While the leather remains in excellent condition, the closure and mounting straps show minor cracks from age and use. Impressively, it bears clear maker markings and a 1942 date. The Packtasche 40 offers versatile use, attaching to the saddle or worn on the back using special cavalry Y-straps. A rarer piece of cavalry equipment, this item is in very good to excellent condition.
