Interesting. Is the inside of the top flap ever blackend on the 1915 blackend holsters? I ask becasue my holster is dyed black on the inside flap/top. But the inside portion where the gun fits in is dark brown. Just like your photos.

If the inside top flap was never blackend, would that mean my holster was blackened years later after WWI?

In your final photo. Why does that holster have a significant portion brown on the right. Did the black dye wear off, or was it not blackend completly/entirely?

Was the holster stitching also blackend or left white.

Thanks again.
