    George Lawrence holster rig info/price check?

    Hey guys..Hope i'm posting in the right spot..I recently came into this old George Lawrence holster & Belt, and am debating wether to sell it. Unfortunately I have no Idea what these are worth, or much about them at all. It is a model 79B 601 and fits a 7 1/2" super blackhawk. It is in excellent condition and obviously VERY well made. Before I decide its fate, I was wondering if anyone can tell me anything about it, and a maybe a fair value if I decide to sell?

    The George Lawrence Company was a major provider of holsters on the west coast from the 1920's up until the 1990's. They made top quality stuff, but their designs were dated, and they were eventually acquired by Gould and Goodrich (Goodridge?). Elmer Keith used their holsters, in fact, thery had a model named after him, though I am not certain how much he may have had to do with the design--it appeared to me to be nothing more than a Tom Threepersons design with a safety snap.
    I'd guess it to be in the 75-125 dollar range, though used gun leather is all over the place, price wise.
