For your consideration is this 1890s, H. H. Heiser double loop leather holster made in Denver, Colorado. Hermann H. Heiser, a leather worker from Platteville, Wisconsin, moved to Denver in 1859 and founded the H.H. Heiser Saddlery Company around 1863. The business became one of the most respected makers of Western leather goods, producing saddles, holsters, cartridge belts, harnesses, scabbards, and chaps. Heiser registered the triple “H” trademark in 1878, and his products were stamped “H.H. Heiser / Denver”. The company was sold to Denver Dry Goods in 1945, later absorbed by Keyston Bros. in the 1950s, and the brand eventually faded out by the mid-20th century. The holster shows dark brown leather with the makers mark on the back flap of the holster reading, "Heiser / H.H.H. / Denver". The holster shows an early double-loop holster, also known as a Mexican Loop holster. This was a style of firearm holster prevalent during the American Old West era, particularly from the 1870s to the turn of the century. It was designed for the heavy single-action revolvers of the time and featured a broad leather skirt from which the gun pouch was threaded through two loops. It shows good condition overall with wear present from its age and use over the years, but no major signs of damage is noted. It measures 10 3/4" L x 5 3/8" W x 1 1/2" D and weighs 8 ounces. Provenance: From the Tombstone Western Heritage Museum in Tombstone, Arizona G79
