About This Piece

The planshet was a standard-issue item for officers of the Soviet Army, used to carry maps, documents and drawing tools in the field. It appeals to military collectors, history enthusiasts and Cold War reenactors, and it also works as a durable vintage-style document carrier. The leather case, metal hardware and multiple compartments are typical of how these field tablets were built for daily use, and the dated stamp inside the flap makes the age of this example easy to identify.
