My experiance is that Huber holsters are a pebble grained calf skin not pig skin. I have in my collection an origianl 1914 Erfurt rig with Huber holster and original attaching leather. The attaching leather is normal calf skin.
Of the several Mars holsters I have had only one was pig skin the oyjers were all calf skin.
I agree with Ron as to the date of this photo I think it is after November 1918.
