Abstract: A carrying bag for flat, cylindrical articles of different sizes, such as cans of motion picture film, has several upwardly opening pockets. A carrying strap is attached to the largest, rear pocket and a belt extends from the rear pocket, over the openings of the pockets, to be secured at the front of the smallest, front pocket, holding the articles in their respective pockets. A flap-like cover extends from the rear of the bag over the tops of the pockets and is large enough to cover the belt and its securing means, to protect the bag contents from the elements, and this flap can be opened to allow inspection of the articles while the belt stays secured to hold the articles within the pockets. A reinforcing member extends across the back of the rear pocket. The underside of the cover flap has a pocket for small articles and documents.
