Tornister

I had two backpacks (Tornister), all came from UK, but I didn't know the different versions between the organizations then, not until recent years when I look back to realized that these was not an Army backpacks.  


This pack has an internal wooden frame, should be a HJ pack, there was a bullet hole at the lower left corner at the back side, its shoot through the lower leather, canvas and wood frame.
(Sold with lot)




This pack also has a internal wooden frame, possible an SA pack.
Its came in poor shape, the hair on the leather almost gone and many holes, and the canvas was badly damaged, I had overhauled the entire pack, the canvas was from British Army duffel bags, and luckily found a  matching color fur, possible a cow hide, not a 'Pony fur. All original leather pieces was hand stitching back by following the original holes.
