Solid, accurate repro (2018-12-13)
As with all WPG products, this is a sturdy, accurate repro. Good quality leather and I especially like the accurate-looking texture on the flaps. Only two criticisms: (1) some of the flaps are not perfectly aligned with the brass studs so the tab on the flap pulls slightly off to one side or the other to align with the stud. (2) Most of the leather takes Neatsfoot oil very well and results in a nice russet color but there are portions of the leather that seem to be resistant to the oil and remain lighter colored than the surrounding leather. Also, the flaps do not all take oil equally well. This can be remedied by oiling the light colored flaps additional times but there is still a slight color difference. But perhaps this is authentic? The originals are all very dark after 100+ years so its hard to say what they were like when new.
