Hello all, i have an older(?) porper case i need info on if anyone has any? I was made an offer for the case by another az'r i shoot with sometimes, and really dont know what the case is worth or how rare it MIGHT be. I got the case in northern IL, and the guy didnt know much about it????(the place i got it from was a bike/pool shop and had it for years and so i seen it and got it, i really like the way it looked) Ive never seen another like it, so was wondering if i could dig up a little info on it. Thanks in advance for any help. I have pics of the case but dont know how to post them, would someone leave me there email addy. and ill send them to you and you can post them, if you would.

What you have there is a really nice case, the dragon is pretty unique tooling (I haven't seen one before), a very attractive case. It's too bad Joe doesn't make these anymore because they are really good, tough, lightweight leather cases. He lost his leather carver guy so stopped producing them.

I am going to PM you with an approximate value.

I used to have one of those, traded it for a nice cue. Never thought they would stop making them.
Really good to see one again.

I'm sorry but I will be unable to buy this case. I just lost my job.
