Hi folks,

For your perusal I have a WynnChester Vintage Army Canvas and Leather Roll-top Rucksack. WynnChester description to follow:


"This Swiss Army vintage pack from the 1950′s is the oldest pack in our “Recon” range – an absolute wonder of Swiss design and craftsmanship in a truly beautiful but functional and robust mid-to-large size rucksack.

Featuring thick full-grain leather straps, metal buckles, a roll-top closure, thick leather base and large front pocket these 1940′s and 50′s packs in the unusual dark grey-green canvas colour of the Swiss army of the time are now very rare – but they are absolutely stunning once reconditioned.


THESE ARE NOW EXTREMELY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND.

I purchased this pack for a project I had planned, but never got round to completing. I have only taken the pak out of its packaging to inspect its condition. The packs retail for a whopping £245 on WynnChesters' site, though I would be happy to let mine go for £125 including associated fees and postage.

I have included a picture from the WynnChester site below:
