Hello the gang

Anyone know of someone who can do a sympathetic repair on a carry handle of a vintage canvas W W Greener case?
I justt want the one side reattached, no restoration.

Regards nitro

Mike Messina care of Griffin and Howe has done several of my cases. His work is better than Huey without all the bullshit and high price.

Cal I think I read some time back that he passed away. Maybe last year or 2015.

Before


After


And the overall, the strap keepers on the back are the dark colour and the strap keeper on the front matches the dark colour i used for the repair, maybe the lighter colour is original and the darker were previous repairs, the light keeper has reminants of a dark brown paint? force matching after the repair ?
