To be fair, who left the leather satchel with the mushrooms embossed on the flap may also be a complete and utter mystery. While not an artist by any measure, they clearly put some work into it, the edges of the illustrated fungi seared into the material, pressed into the leather with a hot wire carefully bent into shape.
And what's inside this mystery bag? Why, mushrooms, of course. There are other plant samples in there too, folded into little pieces of paper to keep them separated, but it's mostly mushrooms. Someone really thought he might like some flora from far outside the city.]
