I got this some time ago and wonder if it is possible to find out the original receiver from the number on the reverse, doe these list still exist? I know that these also was given to norwegians, and I have all the reasons to belive that this has belonged to a man from norway.

Hello, everyone! Today I bought this basket for medicines, and I am 99 % sure that it's WW2, but I won't exclude WW1 either.
Can someone confirm my suspicions?
Heres my example of the standard Red Army issue Medical orderlys satchel , probably phased out early after Barbarossa as its quiet complicated to make . Very sturdy in construction , canvas lined and edged in leather , with internal metal width regulators on underside . The inside sadly has been chopped about . seperator pockets must have been present .
I filled it with some 1939 dated bandage dressings in waxed paper and fabric . Also added a Female compact which is carefully made trench art and dedicated to ‘Volkovoi ‘ - a female surname .
