Thanks Marc and alanint,
The construction seems correct, and the insect damage could probably be re-dyed if someone chose to, as the affected areas are generally smooth - the only ate the finish, not the leather itself.

The holster you sent the link for apparently sold for $700, other vintage similar on ebay for $127, or less. I'm not in a position to start collecting here yet, so I'd like this holster to go to someone who appreciates it, but by the same token I don't want to give it away, nor do I expect to get retail prices on sites like ebay. Any suggestions on what to ask or how to fairly represent it on the FS forum to members in this community is appreciated. Thanks.

The spacer is two distinct, thick layers of leather sewn between the front and back outside layers.

The previous photo of left side edge photo makes the finish appear worse than it really is, only certain of the hard edges are affected by insect damage, and ALL of the stitching is intact throughout. This shot illustrates there's no visible wear to the button hole on the tool holder flap!
