Just got a Fed Nkvd today. Inside the leather case there's Something stamped. I can read a date '1938'. But no idea of the meaning of the words. Any help would be very appreciated ! Jean
Hi Jean, that word is "Кожобъединение"/"Kozhobedinenie" (something like "leather association" in russian). As far as i know, Kozhobedinenie was a factory in Moscow during the late 1920-s and till the end of 1930-s.

First stamp: "NKLP SSSR" mean "people's commissariat of light industry USSR"(light industry ministry). "F-KA KOJANNYKH IZDELIY" mean "factory of leather good's" Second stamp" "OTK-10" mean "quality control Dept-10" and year of pass OTK-10 (1941).
This one clearly readable, previous was not so clear...
