His father thinks it is a Bukta pack but that is about all he could help with: The whole comment was: My father suggests the brand could be "Bukta". His is similar. Metal frame. Only two pockets (side ones). Good luck Hi Neil,

I can't help you with maker and year of manufacture of the pack I am sorry. My guess would have been made in the 1920's. I will post a question over at the http://bushwalk.com forum. There are a lot of knowledgeable people there who might be able to help you out. I will post any answers back here and you should get notified of the update. Cheers Frank Hi Neil,

I live in Wales in the UK (the Old South Wales!) and found one identical whilst clearing out the loft. Any information such as maker and year would be great! Thanks, Neil Hi there,
