Greetings,
I just acquired this mandolin and need to replace the case. I want to purchase a case worthy of this aswsome vintage instrument. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
GM

Eastman is your only simple option. Other than that, you'll have to try something else to see if it fits.
The subject has recently been discussed to excess here - https://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/s...6-UK-Hard-Case
TKL's A-style cases fit quite nicely.

Post a picture of the current case. If it's original it might help you pay for the new one.

This one. I've kept a couple of early Gibson oval-hole A's in them.

That is the same TKL I have and it is a good solid case. I have a Small Dog cover for all of my TKL's, too, but I like to have a strap on mine.

TKL Prestige Arch-Top A-Style Mandolin Case
+1 for the TKL archtop A style case here too for most normal situations rather than really heavy duty use.
