That's a new one on me Tony,but I'm sure that there are LOTS of excellent makers out there that just never received their just rewards.

Never heard of him & couldn't find any mention in any of my books. Got
an example to show us ?
Many times in the past I've run into something after someone called my attention to it. I'll keep my eyes open.

Before we get back to the original subject matter, I would like to take this opportunity to say that your holsters are awesome! 
...back to our regularly scheduled programing.

Bobby I am almost afraid to post this image, the joke writers might wake up. :-)
Left to right; B. F Smith and Sons Saddlery, North Little Rock Ark., marked NLRPD on back. Early Heiser basket weave for 1911, and the Labuave marked holster from some town in Nueva Mexico.
