I've read about their existence, never saw even a picture of one. I have a few Fiala 3-bbl sets, and three of these ar in original Fiala fitted cases. But I'd heard of the canvas roll-up carrying case (NOT the canvas covered, hard, fitted case) and tried to imagine what it might look like.
Finally found a line drawing of it; part of an old illustrated catalog, in another collector's possession. I've "borrowed" a copy of his catalog drawing in order to let everyone know what I'm looking for to add to my Fiala collection.
With their low suspected survival rate, I'll probably end up having to find someone who can build me one, based on measurements of one of my sets.
But, let's give you gun forum readers a chance and see if it's at all possible that I could luck into an ORIGINAL. Anyone out there got one they want to get rid of? I'd love to hear from you. ---45Broomhandle
