Inglis Hi-Power Holster Collection
I have an opportunity to purchase the Holster Collection in the images below. I know that there are two rare variations.
I am looking for an estimate on the value of the collection and/or individual items.
Thank you in advance.

I used to sell nos 2nd Pattern holsters for $50 each. They were the most common. The 1st Pattern would bring $65 and the Pattern '51 $45 in nos condition. Less if used. There are also Pattern 82 and a leather variant of the 2nd Pattern holster with a swivel extension for the meatheads. Oops, I mean military police. Now I'm sure the values have risen since I had them in stock but that should give you an indicator anyhow. Hope it helps. Brian

Thanks Brian,
The one appears to be the modified 1st pattern dated 1945 with the single rivet for the magazine holder.

Yep, I have one of each in my collection. The 1st Pattern holsters are a very tight fit. The 2nd pattern cured the problem. The 1951 and 1982 Patterns are quite hard to find in nice shape if they've seen service as they weren't as durable. I was in Hercules Surplus back in the 90's on Young Street in Toronto and purchase 25 brand new 2nd Pattern holsters that had never been folded. They were all dated 1945 and marked TPL for tropical rot treatment. Left overs for the pending invasion of Japan that fortunately never happened.
