Original Item: One Only. This is a really good example of a British WW1 Officer’s leather holster intended for use with a .455 caliber Revolver like a Webley Mk.VI, a Colt New Service or a Smith and Wesson. Constructed of thick brown Cow leather, this holster is designed to be worn with the standard Sam Browne waist belt. Unlike others we have had, this has a belt loop and a stud used to secure the holster in place on the belt. The rear manufacturer marked and dated:
T. LANGLEY
WALSALL
1915
The leather is still stiff and all stitching is intact, making this holster ready for many more years of service or display after being properly conditioned. There is some cracking at the top of the flap but it is only in the surface.
