- Description
- 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,

- Description
- A metal octagonal film reel case with an empty 35mm film reel. a) The metal octagonal film reel case splits down the middle horizontal with two hinges on one side to keep the lid attached and on hinge on the other with a locking mechanism that entails sliding a locked shaped piece of metal through a slit in another piece of metal. On this side of case is two half circle bumps. Along the top of the lid of the case is various labels, mostly illegible. The one near the lock is faded into a pink colour, the legible text reads “2” in handwriting, “ACCOUNT METRO”, “STORAGE NUMBER” “(ST JHON) 3” in handwriting, “SUBJECT” “GANG THAT COULDN’T SH???? STRAIGHT” in handwriting, and “Please Do Not Cover This Label Non-Inflammable Acetate Film FORM SCV 500”. There is a label on side of the case which appears to be a shipping(?) label. On the back near the back hinges is another label that is illegible since its been ripped. The interior of the case is plain with some cardboard-like padding for the reels. b) The empty 35mm reel is silver with circular cut-outs, larger around the edge and smaller in the middle. Along the edge of the reel on both sides is raised text that reads “GOLDBERG BROS.” “20 MINUTE” “35 MM” “DENVER COLO.” “2000 FEET” and “MADE IN U.S.A”. There is around the middle of the reel where the film would be. 4.9 x 38.0 cm
