For me it is very hard to understand that one should not put "anything" on a holster. I am still very unexperienced in this field, but my logical mind tells me, that it had to be treated with something from day one - in order to preserve it for 50 or a 100 years.
In my opinion we should aim to take it another 100 years. Attached is a holster without markings (with 1911 Luger) I clean it once every few years with KIWI polish, and it looks very well. I am sure my forefathers did the same.
