John,

There are no marks on the holster on Sheriff Quillie Clayton Gaddis' .38 Super. No marks on the plain black snap either. It looks a little like the Myres #967 but with a strap and an open toe. However the basketweave on the Myres is diagonal and the one on this holster is vertical so I believe that it may be a H. Heiser.

The 1911 shipped Nov. 14, 1936 to Q. C. Gaddis at Titus County Texas with the ivory grips. (We still have the original box with the tiny IVORY label on the box.) I suspect that Sheriff Gaddis carried it in that holster since he got it.

I'll welcome your thoughts.

Bob
