Thanks for your help;I came across this case on an Elgin that I saw on ebay...Unfortunetly I let it go,I just wasn't sure about it-Until now! It's exactly like the model on the left in your picture-and now in someone elses happy hands.
I think the plain look of it threw me;and it sure does look like a forgers dream come true. I'll be on the look-out for another of these,maybe next time I'll win the auction.
If you ever see a fake that I could study,please let me know! Besides lousy work how could one be spotted??
