RARE WWI German P08 Luger Holster issued to Machine Gun Regiment

This is a very rare find! A 1913 dated Imperial German army issued Luger holster marked to the 145th Infantry Regiment, 2nd Batallion, Field Machine Gun Company. Just visible is the original ink stamp that reads J. R. 145 2 .B . F.M.G.K  followed by the weapon numbers which are no longer legible and underneath is the date of 1913. The holster was made by F.W.KINKEL, MAINZ. On one corner of the flap is a very distinctive burn mark most likley caused when the wearer came into contact with a hot machine gun!
