Back-pack - what kind?

Hi Guys - question time...

What kind of back-pack is this (maybe Gebirgsjäger?), and what would be the current market value in this condition?

Cheers,
Fabe

Why am I thinking Czech or some other manufacture? Straps too twee for mountain troops. Any markings? NH

These are seller's pics - since he didn't zoom it to any other markings, I gather, there aren't any - or he couldn't find it...

HOWEVER:

I did get this later-war bag for very decent price:

Looks ok by me canvas one rbn maker on it could have been mountain used or standard infantry or artillery the mountain troops had a model usually large pockets on them. I only have the fur models. timothy

The bag arrived and looks great...maybe the leather parts are slightly dry.
I read somewhere, that rubbing in a little vaseline might help it - but is that just an 'urban legend'? I wouldn't want to ruin it...
Cheers,
