I've done a little research and it's kind of hit or miss for me. I found one that looks exactly like I have and it says it's civil war Era but I'm not sure if mine is real or what. I've looked for markings on all of them. Most are dixon and sons, one is a French one, and I have like 6 leather ones. Just looking to see if there is a good place to look. Most of my photos files are too large right now to post as I'm on my phone

    Email photos to yourself, as Medium. That will resize.

    I don't see how to choose a "medium" selection
