Cartridge box ID help
« on: March 14, 2012, 05:56:34 AM »
Hey guys, picked this up a while back. I have a few cartridge boxes but nothing like this. Its got a strange arrangement of straps that i cant figure out how they are to be worn.

Im wondering if anybody can shed some light on its origins and value!

Cheers, McLean

At first glance it looks very much like a fishing creel harness set up

If so

The long strap would go over the off shoulder and the other around the chest to stabilize it
