I've only seen a couple like this with the latch on the back, they were both pretty fancy. I'm wondering if it was to keep the "front" looking clean.
Latch on the "back" is rare. Even on tooled cases.
More rare on non-tooled cases.
That's a really nice example.
Not perfect, but not rough either.
That would pair nicely with a vintage player from one of the big names.
I picture a man that drives a Lincoln Town Car, a blonde on his arm, drinks good whiskey, and is not afraid to put a grand or two on the table, carrying that case.
I don't have one with the latch on the back...but then I don't have a Town Car either... I have a Harley and a crazy red-head. :wink:
Damn nice case. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
