The earlier holsters and accessories were equally well made, but did not use the lighter contrasting thread like yours and the current Boise made items. You got a super deal on these holsters. They will last forever.

Fred I was in Milt's Idaho City Shop a long time ago. Must have
been prior to 1995 because that's the year he died. Tony was
working with Milt at that time, so he was probably making
holsters. Jim Wall has been with Tony quite a long time. I
know some of the others by first name only, but none of those
initials mean anything to me.
