George,
Based on the image above, is that holster actually made of pebble grained cow hide? If so, what was the purpose/reason of making the leather pebble grain, and how did the maker create this pebble grain effect on the leather?
I am sure that you will live long enough to receive the results of the auction and allow you to share/record the information with your wife!! It sounds like you are very much in love with your collection to leave all the fortune of your collection to your widow! Maybe you can time your health in such a way that you do not leave the troubles of selling your collection to your widow.
Cheers,
Albert
