[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 123269, member: 33"]Thanks, Aquitaine -- Nice case and photo! First, just FYI, the wood and leather cases are not called union cases... only these hard thermoplastic ones are. I will see what I can determine about this. The mat and preserver, and the birth year of "about 1842," all agree (in my mind) that this image is from the early 1860s.
