A group lot comprising three vintage carrying cases for photographic and optical equipment.
The first item is a vertical soft-sided camera case by Kodak. It is constructed from black vinyl or leatherette and features the Kodak logo printed in yellow on the front in a stylised 1980s font with horizontal line detailing. The case is a top-loading design with a metal snap-button closure and includes a black braided cord shoulder strap. This style of case was commonly produced for the Kodak VR35 series of 35mm cameras.
The second item is a vintage canvas gadget bag in an orange or terracotta hue. It features dark brown leather or faux-leather trim and straps. The design includes a front-loading flap secured by a leather strap and metal stud fastener. It is equipped with a matching adjustable shoulder strap.
The third item is a semi-hard binocular case with a black textured finish, possibly vulcanite or leather over a rigid frame. It has a hinged lid with a metal press-stud closure. The case contains a pair of binoculars, with the black plastic eyepieces and central focus bridge visible, though the maker of the optics is not identified.
