Replacing the felt on a Repro case is a nightmare, trust me! The glue they used is a synthetic, super sticky and super ickey!! I replaced a couple using Billy Gross' suggestion; using a similar or slightly larger label, I glued material matched "best possible" to a very thin greeting-card weight stock that was cut just 1/8' or so over label dimensions, then glued the label to the card and the card to the case lid after drying. Using very thin card stock and ironing the felt to the card stock before the label is glued to it makes the card barely noticeable in contrast to the surface of the rest of the case lid.
