Hi all,
Picked up an auction win today, and I got quite a surprise. The lot was listed as military gun cases, with a single poor picture, and I took a gamble based on what looked like a Garandicon case. It was, and is dated 1945, so that's a win off the bat.

I'm posting this to the forum for the other two cases though. Judging by the rigging they are airborne valises, and there is a broad arrow stamp on each. A little research and they match the dimensions and general typology of airborne rifle valises. The are grey felt with a heavy canvas cover, so not the super rare green felt airborne valises of WW2.
Are they a post-war version? I've yet to find anything online that matches.
And yes, a No 4 fits perfectly.
What do you guys think? Am I rich?
