One for Jerry, Lanyard questions
I guess this is one for Jerry (and other lanyard experts):
What do you think about this lanyard? |

Vlim, Do you have any other photo's? Looks good from what I can see. The keepers are a tad strange, I have seen them before but the flat wider ones are more common. I would love to see some closeups of all the details.
Tell me more! Jerry Burney

Jerry,
I plucked the photos from a Dutch selling site. Since the thing is quite cheap, I've informed the seller that I'm interested in buying it. Even if it is a repro, the price isn't wrong Here are some details: |

Thanks,
For $47.50 I'm not complaining I'll do some more detail shots after I get it home. |

Vlim, When you get ahold of it I would like to see the closure stud.
Good buy for sure! Jerry Burney

The lanyard came in today. Smells like 100-year old dead cow, so that was a good sign.
Both leather tabs are intact, some dryness tears in the lanyard, but nothing serious. Brass stud with a conical, slightly pointed top. Nice workmanship. |

I would say you more than got your $47.50's worth. Pretty good looking hunk of dead cow.
