Default cases and loading tools

I picked these up off the auction site, not sure the Parker stamp is authentic - seems a little crisp for the age. But I plan to make a case based on Bruce's post of case pics with measurements and wanted to have the accessories in there. Which project hammer gun gets cased will depend on how the barrels clean up.

My question is, was the same style walnut case offered into the top lever hammer gun era? I know a case was offered for 10 dollars on the price lists shown in the Parker Story at least into the 1880's, was this still the same case? It seems when you see the the fitted walnut case it is with lifters. I think have only seen one top lever sitting in a walnut case.
