Lawrence Holster Help

I have what I believe to be a Model 8 type 20 George Lawrence holster with a 1910-1940 makers mark? Was wondering if anyone could help me figure out what all it fits? It came with a 45-70 I recently purchased and this is the only forum I've found where people have info on them.

There are several model 20 items in a Lawrence pre W II catalog including holsters, cartridge boxes and even a leather sap. There are no model 8 items. In a post-war catalog there is a model 8 shoulder holster & a number of model 20 items.
A photo would be invaluable, one showing the makers mark if possible. Otherwise a description might be helpful. Lawrence used the pre-war “football “ makers mark on some items after the war so that mark isn’t always an accurate reflection of when the item was made.

Sorry it took so long to reply. But this is the mark on the case!
