Check with IMA -International Military Antiques. The sell military surplus items, and also sell reproductions. They offer a lot of German items, and the Germans used that pebble grain leather on damned near everything. Black is WWII, brown was WWI.

You laugh at me because I am different. I laugh at you because you are all the same.

Well that is interesting...the case I have to work from is marked "1939", but it's brown...

Not sure if they'd tell me where they get their leather though if they make and sell reproduction items also though...

Well, I would appreciate that very much...thank you.

I am sure I could make it from a double shoulder. Might could get away with one shoulder, but I think I'd be pushing it.

Thanks again..

I sent you a PM (private message) with the details from Horween for the football leather.
