Name German child's fur tornister





Catalog ID HCM6092
Year circa 1895-1945
Description A small tornister (backpack) for a child. Made of leather, with fur. Integrated brown leather straps have steel and brass hardware. Some broken straps, and one separated buckle is included inside. No markings.

Not sure if this is based on the M95 (WWI) or M34 (WWII), or neither. I don't think it's exactly either. It's possible it's not a military copy at all, and was just a backpack, although it has a removable strap on each side for a pack roll (blanket or overcoat), implying military use.
