Show us your case
 
This is the gun USPS lost. I had this case made for it and pretty happy how it turned out. I saw a post recently where someone had made a beautiful case for his Parker and wondering if there are a few more out there

Beautiful case. I like that you didn't line the inside of the lid. Why the extra lock set?

It is pretty common on high end English and Italian side locks, and I happened to have a set.

That' one serious slab of walnut for the lid.

Doncha love it when a guy just happens to have an extra pair of high grade locks just hanging around?

That's a beautiful case. Those Philips head screws are gonna drive Dean crazy.
I like the French edging around the spare locks. Very time consuming to make those.

Dean
Please fell free to send me period appropriate brass screws.:corn:

Good luck with that, David. I've been checking my mailbox every day, and still haven't gotten mine. Maybe because my hinge takes 32 screws.
Jamestown distributors has them. I think I should have used #3 but the #4 barely sticks up, and no one but Dean will notice.

and then the ivory/bone round box has the spare strikers?

looks like you are one stock away from a pair
