Leather trunk gun case repair

I have a German-made trunk case from about 1910 that needs the carry handle repaired.  Is there anyone who does this kind of work?  The rifle was made or marketed by W. Foerster, Berlin.

If you don't get the response your looking for here, you might consider the double gun site.  There have been threads dedicated to the refurbishment of said cases and replacement parts.

I have had repairs and refurbishing's done through Marvin Huey's shop.
I believe Marvin is retired but Kade Gale (not 100 % sure of the name spelling) has taken over for him.
Time line for work can be a while but the workmanship is first rate on the cases I have had worked on.
