I recently picked this set up. The cue is a -Rich-. My case knowledge is nil. There are no tags or markings that I found. The eagle is the only decoration other than the pattern. The pattern is continued around the handle and on the lid flap. I thought the stitching might be a clue, it actually looks like it is braided. I read somewhere some case makers would start with this type (envelope?) to improve their skills and then work their way up to ones that needed seams and more. Thanks for any suggestions.
