The 78D-38 L belt is a Hollywood style gunbelt, 2/12"wide with a drop loop to hold the holster. It should have 25, .38 size cartridge loops, L= large size (40 - 44 inches).
The 78D-603 is a matching holster that should fit a Ruger 357 6 1/2" barrel. Model not mentioned, but I presume an original Blackhawk because the listing is cir. 1964. I believe the company started in 1859, and more recently went out of business. One of their customers, and a solid fan, was the late gun writer, hunter and guide, Elmer Keith.
Oh, and welcome to The High Road. Do come back more often...
