Richard, without more detailed photos, I can't be sure. However, the basketweave tooling is indicative of an H H Heiser case from Denver. Heiser cases are so marked someplace on them. The small compartments and length are indicative of a multiple rod fishing rod case where rod tubes are slipped into the compartments.

The general double ended style is called an Elliott case. Red Head also made Elliott cases, but Heisers are higher quality.

I admire Heiser leather and have been looking for a couple years, if you are not committed to it and if it is marked Heiser.

Best,
Bruce
