    Hello,
    Without being an expert...
    1. In the lid of the bag there is a stamp (ink) with "Reich eagle and swastika" and above it is written "letter stamp" and the inscription reads "The Reich Commissioner for the occupied Dutch territories"
    2. On the back of the bag there is a leather stamp from the “Vienna Security Authorities)

    For me it's a contradiction and reason not to buy this bag because it's either pimped/re-stamped/adulterated...

    Hi,
    I can't imagine why they would ever stamp a holster with an eagle from this size. It makes no sense. But I might be totally wrong, and I would love to learn otherwise.
    The ink stamp is probably added to deceive, post-war. It is a Dutch NSDAP stamp from the headquarters of Seyss-Inquart, and it reads: Briefstempel, which means Letter Stamp. So that is a stamp for paper letters, and it is not supposed to be found in a leather holster.
    I think you should not spend too much $$$ on it...

    Kind regards,
    Martin

    Thank you very much for your information, well it's a bit priced Soo taking all precautions with it, I wouldn't mind that stamp inside to be added later just very difficult to find holster with like you said such a big eagle stamp on the flap, thanks again Martin, your help and knowledge is appreciated

    Post war fantasy item. There is no waffenamp stamp seen in any of the images and these were stamped with them WWII era. Should be a waa inspectors stamp then a numerical sequence and a stick figure eagle on top which all would be a small size that is seen on WWII p38's & their holsters. Small detail but big indication of originality.
