My son recently spotted this on a local trading site This is a "Fancy Mexican" holster by Ingersoll Leather Co. Houston, TX, the presumed supplier of Wolf & Klar's leather good as the drawing in the 1930 W&K catalog match Ingersoll's flyer as posted on this forum earlier by Turnerriver.

The holster is listed simply for "automatics" and has a buckle adjustable retention strap. I have no idea what other autos would fit as I'm not familiar with other autos of that era, but it fits my WWI 1911 Goverment perfectly with the retention strap set at the last hole. Interesting note: the decorative lacing is red and black rather than the more common red and yellow that I've seen.

What else might fit?

I've not ever seen the W&K holster for the auto! Though it is illustrated in the Ingersoll brochure. Note there that the colours of the lacing vary intentionally, as choices.

I have an image of the rarest of all such, which is the W&K belt that matches the holster as a set:

Red, I got a a "period" belt with this holster but it was plain, clearly not the match to the holster.
