I like those old pocket holsters.

Thanks turnerriver!

I found this info today,

The company's name changed to Iver Johnson & Company in 1883.
Then they changed the name again to Iver Johnson Arms & Cycle Works in 1891, when the company relocated to Fitchburg, Massachusetts.

I wonder if they changed the makers mark on the holsters to coincide with the companys name change?
