These have been appearing on eBay recently on a regular basis. I know of NO period photographs of this holster. I believe it is entirely a fake and agree with Russ.
One other interesting detail of this holster is the steel roller buckle. The Germans made their buckles with very distinct sharp corners. This one is too rounded to be original. Jerry Burney
