Alf, itÂ´s 2. D.R.26 wich means 2. WÃ¼rttembergisches Dragoner (Dragoon) Regiment Nr. 26. Foundationday of this regiment was the 6.12.1805; station was Stuttgart.
It would be nice to see complite holster, front and backside. Is the holster dated? Eckart started dating in 1911. If itÂ´s undated it was made in 1910 (or 1909).
The inkstamp is about B.A. XIII. and a date (1910?).
You can use Waschbenzin (can not translate it because I donÂ´t find something in my dictionary) and clean the leather under the flap. There will be no problems with the ink.
Regards Klaus

Klaus, Thank you for this usefull information, it is great to know these details. As far as I can see it is not dated; if not in the ink stamp. I will post some more photos to morrow. I will also try to clean the inside flap maybe we can see the stamp more clearly.
"The inkstamp is about B.A. XIII" what is B.A.XIII.
