Thank you everyone for the comments and feedback.

Regarding the % finish, I was being very conservative and don't have any experience doing an "appraisal" of a gun's condition - so what you see on the photos is its true condition.

I know the holster came with the pistol, and my brother bought it sometime during the late 1950s or early 1960s. If getting the holster cleaned and repaired won't ruin its value (as it will for a pistol), then I would like to do it. My brother smoked cigars and the leather reeks of tobacco, which is why the holster is NOT inside my safe with my other firearms.

Thanks again!
