This is a bad one!!
Looks to be WE Scott. https://www.ebay.com/itm/20493207869...Bk9SR8i-9LOnZA
The part of the snap/popper that's riveted onto the sporran back panel has ripped entirely out.
Which brings up the question "what is that back panel made from?"
As I've mentioned I worked at a Highland Outfitter in the 1980s. We were a WE Scott stockist.
One day a customer brought in the sporran he had purchased from us. The rectangular tab for the sporran belt had torn off in a similar way, taking part of the back panel with it.
That very day our owner decided to switch to sporrans by L&M Highland Outfitters, Nova Scotia Canada.
What I don't know is how many sporrans WE Scott made like that. I think this one on Ebay now is only the second such I've seen.
