Hi Herb,
Got the PM and mailed you with some addidional info. That's going to be an interesting bit of research, as I found more clues that point into the direction of Hudson Maxim being the owner and corrector, albeit not for the sake of Hiram, but more for his own book.
The Dutch marines on page 206 are carrying the 'pistool nr. 1' (the Dutch Navy luger), the P08 style version without the stock lug. The holsters are pretty similar to standard German P08 style holsters.
Perhaps Hugh can comment on the configuration of the holster?
