"HOLSTER FOR COLT SINGLE ACTION COLT . Spectacular Meanea holster for 5-1/2" Colt SAA revolver. Made of one-piece fine russet brown leather with Slim Jim-style body and sewn-in Cheyenne plug. The skirt has two loops, the top about 1", the bottom about 3/4". Skirt has a single line border. Interior and top of the back of the skirt are kidskin lined in a buff colour. Face of the holster has Meanea's beautiful triple border carving with half-circle inside and outside borders and a beautiful braid center border. Top of central panel has a wonderful double flower blossom. Top loop has an intertwined chain pattern and bottom loop sunburst patterns on each side of the Meanea stamp. There is another Meanea stamp above the top loop on the right side of the skirt, parallel to the edge and a most extraordinary third Meanea stamp on the back of the holster body, near the toe, in a position where it would be exposed in the cutout, through the back of the skirt. Rear edge of the body has a tapered wedge, about 1/3 of its length from the top. CONDITION: Extrememly fine plus. This may be the single finest Meanea holster, extant. Body and face of the skirt retain virtually all of their fine, orig finish, with only a couple of small scratches near the toe of the skirt. Lining and backside of the skirt show light to moderate use and wear, but was obviously extremely well cared for. There is some slight crackling just above the top loop in the skirt. Probably from flexing when the body of the holster was removed from the loops. 4-33721 JR308 (12,000-17,000)"
