It looks pretty good to me.
1917 was a high production year, so it's not uncommon.
I see a lot of straw color remaining and it looks like the original finish.
The grips are in good shape and no obvious cracks or chips.

Look at the FAQs and check out the small parts for matching serial numbers.
The grips may or may not be numbered to the pistol.

Look for a date and manufacture stamp on the holster.

BTW, the serial number usually has a suffix that you would want to show.
Look at the frame front and under the barrel, too.

It would normally have a wood bottom magazine, but not matching isn't a big deal.

P.S. Don't store the pistol in the holster - use a gun rug or sock.

If you are going to list it on Gunbroker, 1400 is a good start. It may get bid up from there. Nice gun. Good luck!

Looks very original. When you offer it with pictures, the underside of the barrel will show the halos on the serial stampings , and a reflective picture of the bore condition, the front and rear of the grip straps bluing. Also, another way of storing is to cover it heavily in G96 gun oil and lightly wrap it in Saran Wrap . Put it safely back in it holster all protected and the oil stays well on your Luger.I feel it’s better than man made cloth zipper types as they will absorb the good gun protective oils away somewhat. The old leather won’t damage the finish anymore except for rubbing it against the finish pulling it out and in. Thanks for bringing it out for us to see.

More pics are needed, but $1400 for gun & holster is too low. That is shooter price. Holster is worth at least $200. You could probably sell it here with the holster for $1600 in 15 minutes. And pay no Gunbroker fees.

Is there a tool in the holster?

Where's the magazine?
