Thanks for the holsters pictures. It a wonderful holster.
I think that J. Burgen is definite L.Ritgen.
Some of the holsters on the photos are not mine; some photos are from my achive.

Hi Klaus, I will change J.Burgen to L. Ritgen as you suggested. The illustration in "The Pistole Parabellum" is indistinct, and I think Sturgess may have misread it. Thanks for all your help. Best regards, Norm

I have one holster that seems to be marked B. Wiedermann at Berlin N.39.

Hi Jim, Thanks for that hitherto unknown Navy holster maker. Can you post photos of the holster and the makers's mark? Regards, Norm

I will try to take pictures. The maker is extremely difficult to read.
