got this today and happened to be reading a few threads on them the other day which was more than difficult cause many referenced pictures that were no longer there :wacko: but from my very limited knowledge i think this one is from 45? and that the case is the correct style for that date and manufacturer? can anyone chime in on this one? honestly its a bit outside my range

THese cases tend to be mildew or water proof treated.The canvas has a tacky or oily feel to it and smell.
