We were going to Leeds for the night and all my bags were in the camper so I grabbed the first un rucksack’ey rucksack I saw in the shed.
When I was packing it I saw the markings and I think it is a vintage Dulath pack.
Any info would be greatly appreciated, I was considering waxing it but feel like that may be sacrilege now!

From my searches it seems monarch was made by Duluth back in the day and they still do a Monarch pack -

Thank you both for your replies, question is do I wax it?

I think it depends on how waterproof it is compared to how waterproof you want it to be, and if you're going to keep it or sell it on.
If your'e going to keep it and use it waxing it will make it your very own and serve you well ;)

Cheers Tony, it hammered it down when I used it that’s why I was considering it.
Prior to my searching it was just a old bag my opinion shouldn’t change due to my newly found knowledge.
