One for the German Experts! What is it?

I came across this item recently, it is described as a German WW2 88mm shell transport case. I do not collect German items and have no idea what it is exactly.
Any ideas?

The approx. measurements are; height 53cm (20.9"), width 12cm (4.7"). It is in reasonably good condition with some surface rust and a few dents. Any ideas what it is and a value?
