- A travel case made from some hard light-weight black material (possibly metal) with a hinged lid that closes with metal latches on either side of a latched lock. Metal brackets on all of the corners and reinforcing along all edges - wooden runners along the bottom of the case horizontally. There is a leather strap that clips into loops on the short sides of the box as well as a leather travel tag. Attached to the leather strap is a yellow Canadian Pacific Railway travel tag with a piece of string. Throughout the exterior are various travel labels, mostly torn. On the lid is a white rectangular “Canadian Pacific” label that reads “Nicholas Morant, Special Photographer Canadian Pacific Ltd. care CP Transport” in typed text and “Banff Alta” written in black ink above a scratched out typed “Victoria, B.C.” Also on the lid is a piece of masking tape with “LEICA & FILM & ACCESSORIES” written in blue ink possibly by Nick Morant. The interior is lined with beige fabric and both the main body and the interior of the lid are divided into two equal compartments. In one of the body compartments are wooden slats that most likely sit on supports inside each part to create additional compartments at the bottom of the case, but they are not in place. The compartments in the lid are held closed with small pieces of leather that snap onto the front panels which hinge down on strips of brown fabric tape. Inside the case and lid compartments are a Leica camera and various accessories,

- Three black metal and leather “GRAFLEX CUT FILM MAGAZINE,” used to store individual celluloid negatives mounted into individual sleeves housed inside the main body. Access to the main body is possible by removing the the thin back panel with a leather strap that slides up alongside the leather bag as well by pressing a button on the edge opposite the leather bag, allowing the front panel to pop open. On the front panel that can pop off is a small peephole accessible by a spring-hinged cover. Two of the magazines, marked with a red and a white strip of fabric, have the front panels taped closed with a small piece of masking tape.The three magazines are meant for different kinds of film. The one marked with a small strip of green fabric is meant for “KODAK EXTACOLOR Professional Type S (Short Exposure),” the one marked with the red fabric is meant for “KODAK EKTACHROME Film 6116, Type B (Process E-3),” and the one marked with the white fabric is meant for “KODAK TRI-X PAN SHEET FILM (ESTAR Thick Base).” The individual slides housed inside the magazine with the green fabric may have unprocessed fogged negatives still in them.
