Yard Sale Carrying Case Purchase
I found this at a yard sale on Saturday and didn't know for sure what it was at the time. I figured it was probably for the M1 Carbine but not sure. I have learned that it is for the M1 Carbine but don't know if it is a real one or a reproduction. It's in good shape other than the penmanship which I assume is a previous "owners" initials and last name. I can't explain the tiger striping in the photos. It may be my computer screen or the camera. If you don't see it, it's my computer screen.
Length is 41 1/2 inches.
I unfortunately don't have an M1 to put in it and don't foresee one in my near future.
Any thoughts? Is it real, should I leave the name alone or try to remove it. If removing, how? Was $10 a good deal?

It is not your screen, I see it too, and it does not alter if you slide the image across the screen.
It's Moiré patterning, the same effect as you observe if you look through the folds of lacy curtains or gauze. Just a coincidence that the spacing of the weave in the focussed image is almost the same as the pixle spacing in your camera. If you try the same photo at a slightly different range or magnification, it will disappear.
